Bad Wörishofen [IPA: vø:rɪsho:fən] is a spa town in the district Unterallgäu, Bavaria Germany. It is known for the water-cure of Sebastian Kneipp (* 1821, † 1897), a catholic priest, who was living there for 42 years. Many resort hotels and boarding-houses are in the town where guests can be treated in the kind of Kneipp's methods.
The new spa complex out of town is called Therme Bad Wörishofen.
Cult film director Rainer Werner Fassbinder was a native of Bad Wörishofen.
