Augsburg

Augsburg, one of the oldest cities in Germany, combines 2,000 years of history with Southern German joie de vivre and is a true highlight on the Romantic Road. For convertible drivers, the region around the city of the Fugger offers an ideal mix of historical sights, urban flair, and wonderful excursion routes through the Swabian-Bavarian countryside. A perfect place to combine culture, nature, and driving pleasure.

Driving to Augsburg by convertible – Relaxed through Swabia

The journey to Augsburg via the Romantic Road is an experience in itself. The route from Donauwörth or Landsberg am Lech is particularly beautiful – it leads through gentle hilly landscapes, small villages, and wide fields. Convertible drivers enjoy the open spaces and the mix of cozy country roads and relaxed curves.

Those planning a longer convertible tour in Bavaria can also start from Augsburg towards Ammersee or the Western Woods – there, quiet, shady roads, idyllic lakes, and hidden guesthouses await for a cozy break with a view.

Augsburg – History, Water & Lifestyle

In the city itself, numerous highlights await: the Fuggerei, the world's oldest social housing project, the impressive Town Hall with the Golden Hall, the magnificent Maximilianstraße, and the many fountains and water channels that have earned Augsburg the title "UNESCO World Heritage Site of Water Management."

Art and technology lovers will also find plenty to enjoy here – for example, at the State Textile and Industrial Museum (tim) or in the art collections at the Schaezlerpalais. And for those who prefer a more relaxed setting, there are plenty of cafés, beer gardens, and small shops in Augsburg's old town – ideal for a leisurely break between tour stages.

Augsburg – Perfect stopover or starting point for convertible adventures

Augsburg is both a worthwhile stop on the Romantic Road and a perfect starting point for day trips by convertible into the surrounding area. Whether through the Lech Valley, in the region of Stauden, or further towards Allgäu – the region offers wonderful routes for all those who want to explore nature and culture with the top down.
