Fellen is a community in the Main-Spessart district in the Regierungsbezirk of Lower Franconia (Unterfranken) in Bavaria, Germany and a member of the Verwaltungsgemeinschaft (Administrative Community) of Burgsinn.
Fellen lies in the Mittelgebirge Spessart, in the Würzburg Region.
The community has the following Gemarkungen (traditional rural cadastral areas): Fellen, Rengersbrunn, Wohnrod and Neuhof.
Fellen was part of the County of Rieneck. In 1806, it was mediatized within the Principality of Aschaffenburg, with which it passed in 1814, with the odd small exception, to Bavaria. In the course of administrative reform in Bavaria, the current community came into being with the Gemeindeedikt (“Municipal Edict”) of 1818.
