Bubenreuth is a municipality in the district of Erlangen-Höchstadt, in Bavaria, Germany.

Neighboring towns are (from North clockwise) Baiersdorf, Langensendelbach, Marloffstein, Erlangen and Möhrendorf.

The town is first mentioned as "Bubenrode" in a document dating 24 November 1243.

Bubenreuth gained some prominence after World War II when the town, then having 400 inhabitants, voted to admit 2,000 expelled German refugees from Schönbach im Egerland (now Luby, Czech Republic).

[3] Schönbach was then known for its numerous violin makers and instrument builders that now fled to Bubenreuth and opened new workshops there.
