Hohenbodman is a village in the municipality of Owingen in the western Bodenseekreis in Baden-Württemberg, Germany.

Hohenbodman is located at 660 metres (2,170 ft) above sea level on a hill above one of the oldest nature reserves in Germany, the Aachtobel, which is crossed by the Seefelder Aach. The highest point of the district, which is simultaneously the highest point in the municipality of Owingen, is located at 720 metres (2,360 ft) above sea level.

Hohenbodman includes the central village of Hohenbodman, the farms of Beutenmühle, Burghöfe, Häusern, Happenmühle, Homberg, Neuhof, Niederweiler, Pfaffenbühl, Simonshof, and Urzenreute, and the houses Fitzenhaus und Walthausen.

The family of the Lords of Bodman, imperial ministerials of the Hohenstaufen dynasty and of the Bishop of Konstanz, had their ancestral seat at Hohenbodman Castle, around which the Lordship of Hohenbodman developed. The place itself was first mentioned in writing in 1325. The Lords of Bodmanlater sold the village and castle to the free imperial city of Überlingen after they moved to Bodman and it became their second home. The free imperial city of Überlingen subsequently renovated the castle. Da Überlingen zu dieser Zeit sehr wohlhabend und mächtig war, vergrößerten sie ihren Besitz und sicherten diesen mit kleineren Burgen ab.

During the Thirty Years‘ War in 1642, the entire castle including the tower was burnt down by the troops of Konrad Widerholt. It was subsequently rebuilt, and the Bailiff moved his official residence to the village.

Hohenbodman was an independent municipality in the Überlingen Landkreis. As part of the Baden-Württemberg political reforms of the 1970s, the Municipality merged into Owingen on January 1st, 1972. Owingen and by extension Hohenbodman also became part of the Bodenseekreis as part of the reforms.

The coat of arms of the formerly independent municipality features a red tower on a green mount.
