The yellow Gothic castle in which King Ludwig II spend his childhood.
We stopped here on the way to Schloss Neuschwanstein. An amazing and beautiful castle with a fascinating history, a wonderful place to visit in the area.

This Gothic cathedral was originally constructed in the ninth century and was refurbished in the 14th century.
This is a pretty big church and is a must visit when in Augsburg. It has lovely Stained glasses as well as altar.

Augsburg's 17th-century city hall, recently restored following severe damage in World War II, is the architectural masterpiece of this ancient Roman city.
Sightseeing in Augsburg and naturally we had to check out the famous golden room at the Town Hall of Augsburg (German: Augsburger Rathaus). This building is one of the most significant secular buildings of the Renaissance style north of the Alps. The golden Hall covers an area of 552 square metres (5,940 sq ft) with a ceiling height of 14 metres (46 ft), it is richly adorned with large doorways, magnificent murals and a coffered ceiling. The interior of the Hall (not completed until 1643) was designed by Johann Matthias Kager. Opening hours Monday – Sunday: 10:00 – 18:00 / Ticket price: 2,50 € Unfortunately the machines were you can buy your tickets are out of order. There is a sign stating to go to the tourist information for tickets. Luckily we found the info that we could buy the ticket online which we did. The beautiful chamber covered in wood and gold takes your breath away and is a must see if you are in Augsburg.

The world's oldest social settlement, this estate houses 200 impoverished Catholic tenants.
This is a lovely place to visit for everyone. It's the oldest social housing development in the world dating back to the 16th Century and was the concept of Jakob Fugger. It is still inhabited today and the people lucky enough to be allowed to live there pay 88 cents in rent and must be Catholics and willing to pray for the Fugger family. You can go into a ground floor apartment as it looks today as well as another one which looks like it did 200yrs ago. There is also a museum with lots of information about the Fugger family and a restaurant/cafe.

I (Carmen) grew up in Augsburg and the Puppenkiste was part of my upbringing. Now I'm sad (though it's not surprising) to say that all plays are only in German, some even in native tongue but all are amazing. When I was younger there was a tour offered and I am not sure if it is still around but if it is, just to get a view behind the scenes, I'd go for that any time again. Last time we went, as my husband is english/french, we only passed it and I showed him the outside. It's also close to the 'Rotes Tor' water tower and open air theater which is only on in summer. There are several tram and bus stations near by which can get you there.
