The treasures of Augsburg is a fascinating walk through the city, where history and modernity intertwine in every stone. You enter a world where medieval towers cast shadows on baroque palaces, and narrow streets lead to unexpected discoveries: museums, temples, fountains and gardens. Here the legends of the Reformation meet the industrial heritage, and the spiritual silence of the ancient cathedrals contrasts with the energy of the modernist galleries. Imagine how the stories of merchants come to life next to the luxurious Golden Hall, and people still live in the oldest social quarter of the world for a symbolic fee. You will be able to see how elegant stained glass windows that are more than 900 years old have been preserved, and walk along the paths that Berthold Brecht once walked. The city opens up from an unexpected side in museums of dolls, MAN, textiles, water and even contemporary art. This route is like a mosaic of the eras that make up one of the most striking cities in Bavaria. Feel the atmosphere of Augsburg, which breathes tranquility, wisdom and a deep cultural layer.
