The Swabian baroque corners is a region in Central Swabia. The numerous baroque church towers with their onion-shaped dome have probably led to this name. The area is not clearly delimited. In a broader sense, it means the area between Iller and Lech. The focus of the baroque sights is in the district of Günzburg, which uses this term in its tourism marketing.
