Hofgarten: quiet break with stone dwarfs
Hidden behind Augsburg cathedral, the Augsburg Hofgarten opens out into an oasis of calm – at the heart of the historical old town. This location is popular with locals, who have been meeting here since 1965.
It was once part of the neighbouring bishop’s residence. The garden complex is enclosed by railings and was designed between 1739 and 1744 in baroque and rococo style by master builder Johann Caspar Bagnato. The space includes box bushes, a pool surrounded by stone sculptures and dwarfs – large, grotesque figures in sandstone – a fountain, benches and garden chairs. You can simply let your mind wander in this urban retreat. If you enjoy reading but didn’t bring a book along, you can make use of the public library cupboard.

Augsburg cathedral
From the city centre, you can’t miss the 62-metre-high towers of Augsburg cathedral in the north.
Excavations show that, where Roman housing still stood in the fifth century AD, the first large church-like structure with crypt and central nave arose between the fifth and eighth centuries. A new Carolingian building followed, whose dome collapsed in 994. Over time, Augsburg cathedral took its unmistakable form: to the west, the old Ottonian building with unplastered masonry and the two towers; in the east, immediately adjacent, the towering, white-plastered Gothic choir with significant portals in the south and north adorned with statues. In the year 2000, the Diocesan Museum – home to important works of art – was opened. Tip: the public cathedral tours!
