'''Ulrich von Güttingen''' (died 14 February 1277) was the abbot of the [[Abbey of Saint Gall]] from 1272 until his death.<ref name=HDS>Werner Vogler, Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>
Ulrich came from a baronial family of the [[Thurgau]]. He was a relative of the earlier abbot [[Rudolf von Güttingen]].<ref name=Duft>Johannes Duft, [https://ift.tt/2Q7wN7H Abt Ulrich von Güttingen (1272–1277)], ''Die Abtei St.Gallen'' (St. Gallen, 1986).</ref> He is not mentioned in any surviving source before his election as abbot in 1272. Ulrich was elected by only a minority of monks, the majority choosing [[Heinrich von Wartenberg]]. He did have the support, however, of the [[ministerials]] and [[Burgher (title)|burghers]] of the [[St. Gallen|town of Saint Gall]]. The disputed election was followed by armed conflict. Although Ulrich emerged victorious, the abbey was ruined.<ref name=HDS/>
Dependent on the burghers for his position, Ulrich granted them a charter that expanded their rights and privileges in 1272 or 1273. He supported the newly elected King [[Rudolf I of Germany]] after 1273, spending long periods at his court in an effort to improve the terms of the [[Reichsvogt|imperial advocacy]] (''Reichsvogtei'') over Saint Gall. To finance these stays, Ulrich had to cede abbatial lands to the crown. All of this proved futile, since Rudolf appointed one of the abbey's own ministerials, Ulrich von Ramschwag, as [[Advocatus|advocate]] over Ulrich's objections.<ref name=HDS/>
