Großrinderfeld is a country town in southwestern Germany, in the state of Baden-Württemberg. It is located between Tauberbischofsheim and Würzburg.

Großrinderfeld consists of the four villages of Großrinderfeld, Gerchsheim, Schönfeld and Ilmspan.

History

  • Until 1803, Großrinderfeld belonged to the "Kurfürstentum Mainz", then it became part of the Grand Duchy of Baden
  • On 25 July 1866 the area of Großrinderfeld and the village Gerchsheim were the place of one of the last combats of the Austro-Prussian War. The Prussians there defeated troops of the South-German allies of Austria during the Campaign of the Main.[2]
  • In 1975 the three villages of Gerchsheim, Schönfeld und Ilmspan have been merged with Großrinderfeld to form greater Großrinderfeld
