Ramsberg am Brombachsee is a district of the market town of Pleinfeld in the Weißenburg-Gunzenhausen district in the German state of Bavaria. The village has about 800 inhabitants.

Ramsberg is located on the southern shore of the Großer Brombachsee, a lake in the Franconian Lake District. The surrounding area is characterized by rolling hills, forests, and agricultural land. The economy of Ramsberg is primarily driven by tourism.

Ramsberg has a railway station at the Nuremberg–Augsburg railway, which is served every 60 minutes on weekdays.[2]

The origins of the village date back to medieval times as Ramsberg was first mentioned in 1294. During the Thirty Years' War the population decreased very sharply. Ramsberg becomes part of Bavaria in 1803 by the process of mediatisation. The train station was opened in 1888. Ramsberg was an independent municipality until 1978 as Ramsberg got a district of Pleinfeld.[3]
