How to get here

By plane

Nearest airports are Munich (MUC), Memmingen (FMM) and Nuremberg (NUE).

Getting from Munich to Augsburg takes around 1.5 hours by train in total: From Munich Airport take the S-Bahn to München-Pasing or München Hauptbahnhof (main station). From there you have various trains (both regional (RB/RE) and faster (ICE), though the difference seems miniscule) available to Augsburg.

Memmingen is a lot smaller smaller but has quite good connections all over Europe. It's worth checking as ticket fares might be cheaper. Getting from Memmingen to Augsburg takes around 2 hours by train in total.

Nuremberg Airport to Augsburg is 1:30 by train (metro (U) + RE/ICE)
