Maximilian Museum

Maximilianmuseum

A city history and art museum with original Renaissance fountain bronzes displayed in a glass-roofed courtyard.

The museum occupies two Renaissance merchant houses. It showcases Augsburg's exquisite gold and silver craftsmanship, as Europe's capital of such work, along with scientific instruments and the city's history. The highlight is the glass-roofed Wittelsbach Courtyard, which displays the original bronze statues from the Augustus and Hercules fountains for close viewing. Admission is about 7 euros, the museum is closed on Mondays, and it is located near the town hall square.
