Mittelschwaben is a part of the Bavarian administrative region Swabia. It consists of the districts Günzburg, Neu-Ulm, Unterallgäu and the district-free town Memmingen.
The name Mittelschwaben was created in the 19th century to distinguish the Bavarian parts of Oberschwaben from the Baden-Württembergian.
