ILLERTISSEN – A CITY WITH A FUTURE
Nestled in the Middle Iller Valley, on the ancient border between Bavaria and Württemberg, Illertissen stands out between the centers of Ulm and Memmingen with its steadily growing economy and quality of life. Its location on the A7 motorway between Memmingen and Ulm offers the Vöhlinstadt excellent transportation links for industry and trade. The direct location on the Ulm-Kempten railway line also contributes to the favorable transport situation, with Memmingen Airport in close proximity.
ECONOMY, INFRASTRUCTURE & LEISURE
With around 18,000 inhabitants, Illertissen and its districts of Tiefenbach, Betlinshausen, Au, and Jedesheim offer their residents excellent infrastructure. It positions itself as a mid-sized center between Ulm and Memmingen, ideally combining living and working. Numerous industrial and commercial areas across various sectors provide the best conditions for employees on site. For those embarking on self-employment, the Illertissen Startup Center offers support, helping aspiring entrepreneurs realize their dreams. The good infrastructure and countless opportunities for active leisure activities such as museums, diverse shops, the popular Nautilla leisure pool, and the Iller meadows, especially for cycling enthusiasts, contribute to the city’s attractive overall image. A vibrant downtown, well-stocked retail stores, and a large number of specialty markets for daily needs complete the offering.
HEALTH, EDUCATION & CULTURE
Medical care is ensured not only by the Illertal Clinic and the newly established iTCM Clinic, which is unique in the area with its integrative traditional Chinese medicine, but also by numerous doctors covering all treatment areas. Furthermore, Illertissen offers a wide range of services for elderly care with the Senior Residence Haus Sebastian and the Caritas Center.
Education is highly valued in Illertissen: families find almost perfect conditions here—a wide range of schools and kindergartens covering all types of secondary and special education as well as childcare options for all age groups, vocational schools, music schools, and a very active club scene characterize Illertissen. Also noteworthy is the BG training center and the university center in the castle, where events of the Neu-Ulm, Augsburg, and Kempten universities take place and which can also be used by external companies or individuals.
In addition to all these opportunities, culture enthusiasts also get their money’s worth in Illertissen: plays by the Schwabenbühne or theater associations, high-caliber concerts by the “Friends of Culture in the Castle” or the city’s own diverse orchestras, bands, and choirs, and the city's museums are definitely worth a visit.
