      The Federsee near Bad Buchau, a town west of Biberach an der Riß in Upper Swabia, is the largest contiguous moorland in southwest Germany, covering 33 km².

      The Federsee basin is home to 265 bird species, including 107 breeding bird species. Over 200 breeding pairs of Whinchats and 18 breeding pairs of Marsh Harriers are worthy of mention in themselves. A museum, the Federsee Museum, and a NABU (Nature and Biodiversity Conservation Union) center provide information about the significance and history of the moor. The Federsee basin is a bird sanctuary under the European Flora-Fauna-Habitat Directive and part of the European Natura 2000 biotope network.

      The Federsee basin is known as an archaeological site with settlement remains, primarily from the Late Neolithic and Bronze Ages, or Urnfield periods.
