Königsmühle is a hamlet and one of five parts of the municipality of Asbach-Bäumenheim in the district of Donau-Ries, Bavaria. The name goes back to a historic water mill on the Schmutter, which in the 19th century became the engine for the linen spinning mill, founded in 1865 by Maximilian Droßbach.

The Antoniuskapelle was built in 1687 by the Counts Fugger. For a long time, the citizens of Bäumenheim were unaware of the Baroque jewel they possessed with this little church. Thus, caring for its upkeep was more of a nuisance than an honor for them. It was treated rather neglectfully and was several times in danger of falling into ruin. Only after repeated urging by the Office for Monument Preservation did the municipality decide to thoroughly renovate the chapel externally in the years 1968-1972. The restoration of the interior and the Baroque furnishings took place in 1979-1981 with the active participation of the "Friends of Antoniuskapelle" association.

It is best to only use the paths (for nature conservation reasons! Be careful of the steep slope! (Danube), you can also take another route which is much further. Other side of the Danube, bridge available (sheep pen). Closed to motorists! Danube Marxheim crossing possible but about 12 km further. Old Danube 1 (nature conservation lake), 2 Old Danube, 3 Old Danube with water connections and quarry lake.
