Breitenwang is a municipality and village in the district of Reutte in the Austrian state of Tyrol.
Breitenwang is located in the Reutte basin adjacent to the city on the Plansee and is closely interwoven with this community infrastructural. The cluster village consists of the districts Breitenwang, Lähn, Mühl, Neumühl and Plansee. Part of the Plansee belongs to the municipality, in which the Archbach springs from the Plansee.

Breitenwang was first mentioned as "Breitinwanc" or "Breitenwanch" in 1094, when Duke Welf IV and his wife Judith transferred their possession to the welfische Hauskloster Altdorf-Weingarten.
