Baienfurt (Low Alemannic: Boeafurt) is an Upper Swabian municipality in the district of Ravensburg in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Starting from the north, Baienfurt borders Fronreute, Baindt, Bergatreute, Schlier, Weingarten, and Berg.

In addition, parts of the FFH areas Schussenbecken with Tobelwälder south of Blitzenreute and Altdorfer Wald are located in Baienfurt.

The name Baienfurt, also written as Baier, Beierfurt, or Paigerfurt in early documents, derives from a ford across the Wolfegger Ach.

The lords of Waldburg held the lordship until 1587 when, in a settlement of the Vorarlbergian Swabian district with its seat in the neighboring Altdorf (today Weingarten), they transferred the sovereignty.

With the establishment of a paper mill from 1870 onwards, the village, which had been predominantly rural until then, became an industrial location and has since grown steadily.

At that time, the textile industry needed this type of thistle to raise certain fabrics, and they were sold in Baienfurt at their own comb market, which was announced by hanging blue and white flags.

Since 1997, the cultural association Manufaktur has been organizing concerts, theater performances, cabaret events, and exhibitions in the listed Speidlerhaus from 1673.

In 2011, Uli Boettcher opened the cabaret stage Hoftheater in a converted barn in the Hof district.

At the end of 2008, the group completely closed the Baienfurt plant except for a cutting center.As early as the 13th century, three mills were operated on the Wolfegger Aach.
