Birkach ( /ˈbɪərkeɪx/) is a borough in the south of Stuttgart located on the plain known as the Filderebene, just north of Plieningen.

Of the districts of Stuttgart, Birkach is among the smallest.

[2] Birkach was mentioned for the first time in 1140 as "Birckhe" and was probably a possession of the Lords of Plieingen and by extension the County Palatine of Tübingen.

Between 1295 and 1317, the village, now known as Birtach or Birka,[3] was sold to Bebenhausen Abbey.
