Upcoming Event: City Tour Augsburg
?

Saturday, 26 April 2025
The Welcome Service organizes a city tour of Augsburg for international researchers as well as their family members and partners at the beginning of each semester.
Being founded just before the turn of the millennium around 0 BC, Augsburg is one of the oldest cities in Germany. It is associated with names like Jakob Fugger, Bertold Brecht, Leopold Mozart and Rudolf Diesel. Since 2019 Augsburg can even boast itself a UNESCO World Heritage site for its
water managment system.
We will meet at Augsburg City Hall Square and will then spend approximately two hours exploring the city together, learning about the city's water management system and visiting the
Fuggerei, the oldest existing social housing complex in the world. Our city tour will lead us through the historic city center with its?magnificent fountains, towers and churches.?We will stroll along Maximilianstra?e with its splendid buildings and hidden courtyards as well as along the Lech canals where the craftsmen¡¯s houses are located. After the tour, we will have lunch together at the restaurant
Zeughaus Stuben.
The Welcome Service will be covering the costs for the city tour in English and the entrance fee for the Fuggerei. Food and drinks at the restaurant (approx. 20€) will be at your own expense.
Family members and partners are welcome to join! Places are limited; registration is first come first served.
