Baiersbronn is a municipality in the district of Freudenstadt in Baden-Württemberg in southern Germany. It is situated in the Black Forest on the Murg river.

Administratively, Baiersbronn consists of the following nine villages:

  • Baiersbronn
  • Friedrichstal
  • Huzenbach
  • Klosterreichenbach
  • Mitteltal
  • Obertal
  • Röt-Schönegründ
  • Schönmünzach-Schwarzenberg
  • Tonbach

In its current form, Baiersbronn was created in the 1960s and 1970s by joining five municipalities. Its main industry is tourism.

Baiersbronn is twinned with Midhurst in West Sussex, England. Reichenbach Priory, a medieval monastery building, is located in the village of Klosterreichenbach.

In 2007 Claus-Peter Lumpp, whose restaurant "Bareiss" is the second three-star eatery in the southern town of Baiersbronn, both earned their third Michelin star. Lumpp's neighbor Harald Wohlfahrt of "Schwarzwaldstube" had joined the three-star list in 1993.
