State Textile and Industry Museum (tim)
Staatliches Textil- und Industriemuseum
An industrial museum converted from an old textile mill, where you can watch looms in action and learn about the city's textile history.
Augsburg was once Germany's textile capital. The museum is housed in a 19th-century textile mill and traces the history from medieval hand weaving to industrial production. Staff start up historic looms and printing machines on site, and the museum displays many fabric samples and fashion pieces. Admission is about 7 euros, and the museum is closed on Mondays. It suits visitors interested in industrial heritage and design, and it is located on the east side of the old town.
