Lech and Wertach
The two rivers enclose the old town on either side and join to the north. Their converging courses frame the historic centre like a pair of brackets.

The map
About this Augsburg map poster
Augsburg was founded by the Romans in 15 BC, making it one of the oldest cities in Germany. It lies on a tongue of higher ground between two rivers, the Lech to the east and the Wertach to the west, which meet just north of the centre. The old town runs along this ridge in a long north-south line, with Maximilianstraße as its broad spine.
Water is present all over the map. A network of canals, many of them medieval, branches off the Lech and runs through the lower town, once powering mills and supplying the city's fountains. This water management system was added to the UNESCO World Heritage list in 2019. The canals appear as fine, winding lines between the blocks of the Lechviertel and the old craft quarters.
Augsburg was home to the Fugger banking family, whose Fuggerei, founded in 1516, is the oldest social housing complex still in use; its walled rectangle of small houses is clear even at map scale. The Peace of Augsburg was signed here in 1555. An Augsburg map poster shows how river, canal and street have been fitted together over two thousand years.

Canal network
Old canals branch from the Lech and weave through the lower town. On the map they add delicate, irregular lines of water among the dense blocks of the eastern quarters.
The Fuggerei
The Fugger family's walled housing estate forms a neat, self-contained grid of lanes near the centre, one of the most recognisable small shapes on the city map.

Why Augsburg
A map that means something
