Ingelfingen () is a town in the Hohenlohe district, in Baden-Württemberg, Germany. It is situated on the river Kocher, 4 km northwest of Künzelsau, and 36 km northeast of Heilbronn.
== History == Numerous archeological findings from the Hallstatt culture, the La Tène culture and the late Stone Age show that the area has been inhabited since at least 5000 years with interruptions. The first permanent settlement has been documented in a document from 1080 of the Comburg monastery and later in 1248 in a letter by Pope Innocent IV. In 1323, the city officially acquired the rights of a "market town". During the 30 years' war, the city suffered from heavy damages.
