    The Protestant Church of St. James in Augsburg is located in the Jakobervorstadt district and is a historic pilgrimage church on the Way of St. James (Camino de Santiago). It was built in the 14th century as a Gothic hall church and was one of the first churches in Augsburg to hold Protestant services (from 1521). After its destruction in World War II, it was rebuilt by 1963. Today, it also offers simple pilgrim accommodation and is the center of the annual St. James' Week and the Jakober Kirchweih, Augsburg's oldest folk festival.

    Augsburg is one of the oldest cities in Germany. In the old town, you can find buildings from various stylistic eras, including medieval guild houses, the Cathedral of the Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary from the 11th century, as well as the Basilica of St. Ulrich and Afra with its onion dome.

    The Augsburg Town Hall with its Golden Hall, among other things, dates back to the Renaissance.

    The Fugger houses served as the residence for the wealthy merchant family Fugger, and the Fuggerei is a social housing complex dating back to the 16th century.
