Schrobenhausen (German pronunciation: [ʃʁoːbn̩ˈhaʊzn̩] ^ⓘ; Central Bavarian: Schrobenhausn) is a town in the district of Neuburg-Schrobenhausen in Bavaria, Germany. It is situated on the River Paar approx. 25 kilometres (16 miles) south-west of Ingolstadt and 35 kilometres (22 miles) north-east of Augsburg.

Remains of ancient settlements in the area can be traced as far back as the Bronze Age.

The name “Scropinhusen” appeared for the first time in church books around the year 790 AD.

In the 10th century, the small settlement was devastated during the Hungarian invasions and was not mentioned in any documents for more than 100 years. The town was once again completely destroyed in a war in 1388.

Schrobenhausen flourished in the 15th century.

Due to its location on the important road between the imperial cities of Augsburg and Regensburg, Schrobenhausen was often affected by military armies. During the Thirty Years' War, the area was in the front line between the Swedish army and General Wallenstein's imperial army for several months in 1632 and 1633.

In the second half of the 19th century, paper and metal processing companies emerged in Schrobenhausen.

During the Second World War, chemicals for explosives was manufactured in the city. Many of the workers were forced laborers.
