Augsburg

Why go

Founded as Roman Augusta Vindelicorum, Augsburg later became an imperial city and a base for the powerful Fugger and Welser merchant families. The Fuggerei makes that wealth's social dimension tangible through historic housing. The Renaissance town hall gives the city a very different, public expression of its prosperity.

What to look for

• The Fuggerei preserves an unusual historic housing complex.
• The Renaissance town hall marks Augsburg's civic center.
• Roman origins and merchant wealth sit within the same city story.

Useful to know

• Pair the Fuggerei with the town hall to see private patronage and civic ambition side by side.
• Check access if you intend to enter the Fuggerei museum or town hall interiors.
