Ochsenhausen (German: [ˈɔksn̩haʊ̯zn̩] ⓘ) is a city in the district of Biberach, Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

In 1803, in the course of the German mediatisation, the abbey was secularized and erected into a secular principality that was then granted to Prince (until then Count) Franz Georg Karl von Metternich (father of Prince Klemens von Metternich and father-in-law of Duke Ferdinand Frederick Augustus of Württemberg) in compensation for the loss of his immediate fiefs on the left bank of the Rhine after the whole area was annexed by revolutionary France.

In 1806, the short-lived principality was annexed to the Kingdom of Württemberg, which in 1871 became part of the German Empire.

Ochsenhausen is called a "Baroque Kingdom of Heaven" ("Himmelreich des Barock") because of the monastic architecture.

It is named after a historical narrow-gauge railway called Öchsle which ran from Ochsenhausen to Warthausen.
