Tag 42: Ingolstadt - Augsburg
June 26, 2023 in Germany ⋅ 🌩️ 26 °C
Anstatt wie geplant weiter der Donau zu folgen, bin ich an der Lechmündung abgebogen und den Fluss aufwärts nach Augsburg gefahren .

Unterwegs habe ich meinen 3‘000. Kilometer passiert. Eigentlich wollte ich zu diesem Anlass dort ein Foto schiessen. Aber kurz vorher hat mich ein älterer Herr auf seinem E-Bike angesprochen. Er wollte einkaufen und eine kurze Spritztour machen, ist dann aber mit mir ca. eine Stunde lang mitgefahren. Ein spannender Mensch, welcher viel erlebt und viel von der Welt (teiweise auch mit dem Fahrrad) bereist hat.

Nachdem wir uns verabschiedet hatten, hatte ich für einen kurzen Moment Mühe wieder auf meine Route zurück zu finden und musste teilweise auf ganz engen Waldwegen fahren.

Nach dem „obligatorischen“ einkehren im Biergarten, schlenderte ich noch etwas durch die Altstadt von Augsburg und besuchte das Rathaus mit seinem goldenen Saal.

Auf dem Rad: 93 km / 280 Höhenmeter / 4h 53min.Read more

Fuggerei
October 13, 2022 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ 15 °C
LEGGETE PERCHÉ È INTERESSANTE.

- Questo quartiere è stato costruito nel 500 dalla famiglia dei Fugger, che divenne la famiglia più ricca d'Europa con la vendita di spezie e schiavi.
- Per poter abitare nella Fuggerei una persona doveva (e deve ancora oggi) essere cattolica e residente di Augusta da almeno 2 anni.
- L'affitto è di 88 cent all'anno, infatti queste sono case popolari per chi non può permettersi un'altra soluzione.
- Chi torna a casa dopo le 22 di sera deve pagare una penale.
- Oggi nella Fuggerei abitano 150 persone.
- Il più famoso abitante della Fuggerei fu Franz Mozart, bisnonno del compositore Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.Read more

Day 42: Tour around Augsburg
January 16 in Germany ⋅ ☁️ -1 °C
Augsburg is famous for its water system, so famous that it has become a UNESCO World Heritage. Its technology of pumping water to the water towers to provide drinkable water to the city is quite impressive. With abundant water supply, Augsburg itself is very self-sufficient.

There is a UNESCO information center in the city centre, which definitely worth a visit. It explained how and why the water system in Augsburg has been one of the heritages.

Augsburg doesn’t have the commercial vibes. There were not many tourists there when we visited. The architecture is similar to Italy, so we had a feeling of visiting Venice but without the tourists. One good thing to visit Augsburg, you can get free water easily, just bring your own bottle.Read more

Augsburg, Living Advent Calendar
December 14, 2019 in Germany ⋅ 🌬 41 °F
I came here specifically to see this. The angels are standing in the windows of city hall. They all had a very matching cherub look. It was certainly German in feeling. The crowd watching the windows was large, but after the music finished, the groups went back to their gluhwein. Which is a mulled red wine and very cozy.

Now dinner at the Ratskeller which is the bar and restaurant below City Hall. I wouldn’t mind working at a city hall if it had its own bar.Read more

Augsburg
August 26, 2022 in Germany ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C
Aminah and I decided to use our InterRail pass to practice our German skills.
Our journey started on Friday morning where we took the train towards Germany. We were quite wasted because of the night before. My friends asked me if I’d like to join a little street food festival on Zug. Aminah and I joined the scenery and we soon realized that this night won’t end anymore.
We had quite some luck on Friday morning when we entered the train in Zurich direction Munich it was barely a seat taken. We used the journey to rest and recover from the night before.

Once we arrived in Augsburg, we checked into our hotel and went sightseeing. The day was quite relaxed but we laughed a lot and enjoyed the time together.Read more

Day 41
Augsburg
October 1, 2022 in Germany ⋅ 🌧 48 °F
Augsburg was pretty much a rest stop for us. There's not a lot for tourists here. But staying in the namesake of a former favorite beer or mine (Augsburger, or "Augie's") did have a certain appeal. That was made in Monroe, Wisconsin and not here though. Augsburg is about the same size as Madison and is also a university town.

I booked a 4 star hotel using credit card points, so it was effectively free. The weather was rainy and cold, so we mostly chilled out and read up on the next few sites we will visit.

The hotel did have a sauna and we found an amazing pizza place in town that served gluten free pizzas. We were on the 11th floor of the only tall building in town and had a balcony, so it wasn't all bad. And we needed the rest.

Tomorrow, we're off to Baden Baden, one of Europe's premiere spa towns.
