Augsburg

Shaped by the Romans over 2,000 years ago, Augsburg is one of the oldest cities in Germany. Now a bustling university town, it retains its medieval charm in the beautifully elaborate buildings dotted around the town.

The birthplace of business tycoon Jakob Fugger, composer Leopold Mozart and writer Bertolt Brecht – Augsburg has a rich cultural heritage. And located in southwest Bavaria, with Wurzberg to the north and Fussen to the south, it’s an ideal base for exploring the Romantic Road.

Wandering through the leafy town, you’ll find countless opportunities to immerse yourself in the local culture. The famous Augsburger Puppenkiste marionette theatre has shows running throughout the day. While the central Naturmuseum specialises in fossils exhibitions and a Planetarium for budding astronomers. For those wanting to relax, the heart of the city boasts the Rathausplatz. This Renaissance style town square is lined with street cafes, perfect for watching the world go by – or even indulging in a slice of the Bavarian plum delicacy Zwetschgendatschi.
