The Limpurg cow breed represents the oldest still existing cow breed in Württemberg.
Its name derives from the county of Limpurg, south of the city of Schwäbisch Hall. It came into existence from breed crossings between the local red breed, which was present after the 30 Years War and the breed Allgäuer (named after the region between south-west Bavaria and south of Baden-Württemberg).
