Former *Komödienhaus in der Schlachtmetzig* where in 1762 *The Tempest* (Shakespeare), translated by Christoph Martin Wieland was performed for the first time.

תבנית:Infobox country

For many centuries, Biberach was an Imperial Free City (תבנית:Lang-de) in the Holy Roman Empire. In that role it participated in the 1792 Reichstag.

During the Protestant Reformation, Biberach was notable for being — eventually along only with Ravensburg, Augsburg and Dinkelsbühl — a "Mixed Imperial City" (תבנית:Lang-de) where the Peace of Westphalia caused the establishment of a joint Catholic–Protestant government and administrative system, with equality offices (תבנית:Lang-de) and a precise and equal distribution between Catholic and Protestant civic officials. This status ended in 1803, when Biberach was annexed by the Margraviate of Baden, soon to become a grand-duchy. In 1806, it was traded to the Kingdom of Württemberg in exchange for the town of Villingen; becoming part of the German Empire on its creation in 1871.

During the French Revolutionary Wars, Biberach and its environs were the site of two sizable battles in 1796 and 1800.

During World War II, two large prisoner-of-war camps were located here, with Oflag V-B for officers, and internment camp Ilag V-B for allied civilians, mainly from the Channel Islands.
