Ludwigsburg is a district (Kreis) in the middle of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Neighboring districts are (from north clockwise) Heilbronn, Rems-Murr, the district-free city Stuttgart, and the districts Böblingen and Enzkreis.

During the communal reform of 1973 the district gained about half of the dissolved district Vaihingen, and some few municipalities from the districts Backnang and Leonberg.
The imperial eagle in the coat of arms is taken from the arms of the city Markgröningen, which was an imperial city. It was later adopted by the city Ludwigsburg as well. The deer antler above the eagle is the symbol of Württemberg. |
