Airline Tickets to Augsburg

Augsburg has been around since AD 15. The city was founded during the reign of Augustus, a Roman emperor, and hence the name. The city has a rich and turbulent history. It was destroyed and restored several times and has seen both prosperity and destitute.

Today, Augsburg is an independent city, located northwest of Munich, Bavaria. Due to its location on major European trading paths, Augsburg became a significant commercial point. This is the place where the aristocratic Fugger family established a steady banking system and gained the characters of patrons of the arts. This is the place where a serious religious conflict took place in 1555, resulting in the famous Peace Treaty between the Catholic and Protestant church branches. In the 19th century, Augsburg enjoyed substantial industrial growth and became a major textile and machinery production center. During WWII, the city was destroyed severely by the allied aircraft.
