Günzburg, a city on the Danube in Bavaria, Germany, was in the 16th century the scene of six Anabaptist executions. Details have not been preserved about these deaths, nor about those in the neighboring cities of Dillingen, Lauingen, and Höchstadt, in each of which two Anabaptists were martyred. The only information is that given by the martyr list of the Hutterian Brethren.
