Göppingen is a Kreis (district) in the middle of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. Neighboring districts are Rems-Murr, Ostalbkreis, Heidenheim, Alb-Donau, Reutlingen and Esslingen.

The district is also sometimes called Stauferkreis, because the Staufer[?] family had their roots in this area. However when that family had no heir anymore the land became part of Württemberg in the 14th century.
