Augsburg trip planner

Easily and quickly accessible from anywhere in the country, Augsburg is packed with historical attractions and intersected by quaint cobbled streets. The children of Roman emperor Augustus founded Augsburg about two millennia ago. A free city for more than five centuries, it is now the largest city on the scenic Romantic Road, one of the country's most popular sightseeing routes. Augsburg is one of the wealthiest medieval urban centers in Europe--and a major hub of the prosperous textile trade. The ever-expanding fields of industry and technology have more recently shaped this attractive city of spired historic buildings. A small but exceptionally efficient transportation system features several main tram and bus lines covering both the urban and suburban areas.
