The present church stands on a site that already featured several church buildings between the 8th and 15th centuries. These originated from pilgrimages to venerate Saint Afra (d. 304). Bishop Ulrich of Augsburg was buried near Afra's shrine in 973. Since 1012, the holy site has been cared for by the Benedictine monastery of St. Ulrich and Afra in Augsburg. The lower church, containing the crypts of Saints Ulrich and Afra, was designed in 1962. St. Ulrich and Afra is a steep, three-aisled brick basilica with a transept and a long, east-facing chancel. Since 1594, the 93-meter-high onion dome of the Catholic basilica has been visible from the Swabian countryside. Only this structure—also known as the Afra Tower—on the north side of the nave was ever built. A planned tower on the south side was never constructed due to lack of funds. The parish house of the Catholic community adjoins the church on the northeast side. On the southeast side is a private green space containing the remains of the St. Godehard Chapel, dating from the Merovingian and pre-Romanesque periods. Adjoining the south side of the basilica are the modern buildings of the Haus Sankt Ulrich conference hotel, belonging to the Diocese of Augsburg. It was built between 1971 and 1974 as an educational and pastoral care center, designed by the Munich architect Alexander Freiherr von Branca in the postmodern style. From 2006 to 2009, it was renovated and redesigned, transforming it into a conference hotel and convention center according to plans by the Munich architectural firm Blum Architekten. The west side of the church is also surrounded by buildings. Outside the nave, the ensemble with the Protestant St. Ulrich Church is impressive, a popular subject for photographs, and symbolizes Augsburg's parity.

It's rolling here between Meringerzell and Baierberg on the quiet road around the Hartwald forest. The asphalt is good, and it rolls well.

One of many mandatory bike paths along the road. It's easy to cycle between the two towns. Currently a bit dirty due to harvesting.

Imposing barrage on the Lech River. At barrage 22, the water is diverted from the Lech River to the Lochbach, where three additional, smaller weirs are located. On the northern edge of Augsburg, the wide, parallel Lech Canal branches off towards Meitingen and only flows back into the riverbed after more than 20 kilometers. Along this Lech Canal are three power plants built between 1898 and 1922 (Gersthofen, Langweid, and Meitingen canal power plants). The power plants along the Lech generate an average of approximately 3–4 billion kilowatt hours of electrical energy per year. More: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lech
