    Getting TO/AROUND: Most of the points of interest in Augsburg are within easy walking distance, and to encourage walking tours the city has put up maps at several places showing suggested walking routes. At the main railway station and at the information offices (Bahnhofstraße 7 and Rathausplatz) you can also get folders showing these routes.

    Among other places, these walks take you to all the parts of the city that have anything to do with Leopold Mozart, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart or Bertolt Brecht.
    This particular map is on display near the Augsburg Theater on Kennedyplatz.

    Transportation: General German Bicycle Club (ADFC)

    Getting TO/AROUND: Like any other self-respecting German city, Augsburg has an active chapter of the General German Bicycle Club (ADFC). This is a service and lobbying organization to promote cycling as a healthy, safe and sensible means of transportation.

    The Augsburg chapter is particularly interested in establishing well-marked cycling lanes on the streets, not on the sidewalks, so as to increase safety and avoid infringing on the rights of pedestrians. They are also lobbying for the establishment of a full-service guarded bicycle station at the main Augsburg railway station. Such bicycle stations already exist in a number of German cities such as Darmstadt, Aschaffenburg and Gera, to name only a few that I happen to have noticed.

    As the name implies, the ADFC is intended to counteract the nefarious machinations of the infamous General German Automobile Club ADAC.

    I am of course a member of the ADFC, but in Frankfurt not in Augsburg.

     This must have been a walking, bicycling, cultural paradise for you. So much history and musical heritage here. The Golden Hall is amazing. Wonderful page Don.

     Another splendid page stuffed full of history, musical tidbits, architecture, and great insights. Really enjoyed the Mozart House, the side-by-side churches, the Fuggerei, and the walking tour. Thanks for such quality work.
