Review – Basilica of St. Ulrich and Afra, Augsburg From the outside and in photos, the Basilica does not immediately stand out as something exceptional. At first glance, it may even feel rather understated compared to other famous churches. However, once you step inside, the impression changes completely. The interior is truly beautiful and deeply mesmerizing. The scale, the harmony of the architecture, and the atmosphere create a strong sense of calm and grandeur. It is one of those places where you instinctively slow down and take it all in. The space feels elegant, balanced, and very powerful without being overwhelming. By the end of the visit, it becomes clear that this Basilica is a must-see in Augsburg. It is unquestionably one of the architectural highlights of the city and well worth entering, even if the exterior does not initially raise expectations.

The main part of the church is covered in scaffolding but it is still open. The church has a huge interior and it is free to visit. Photography is permitted at all places. The three separate alters at the front are quite unique IMO. Well worth a visit.

Catholic Basilik with late gothic interior architecture and baroque style identify the externl dom thus currently under renovation. the church includes the relics of St.Afra and St.Ulrich which you can visit to pray under the main altar and it holds a historical significance where 2 roman german emperors were crowned here.

Really interesting piece of history in Augsburg old town. This is a well designed building looking fantastic from the outside and although I did not have time to go inside, I am sure it is just as amazing from inside with really good designs. If you like taking photos of old and historical buildings, this is one to visit. Try also taking a video when the church bell sounds.

One of the main churches in Augsburg. A beautiful Gothic style basilica holding the largest organ in the city. An impressive altar showcasing the marvellous German architecture of the period with delicately carved sculptures. The pulpit is new. This church holds an important place in the history here and is adored by the residents of Augsburg. It is worth the visit and time.

15th century church with roots dating back to 10th century is a mixture of Renaissance style with major Gothic architecture design. It's significant features are the red roof and the onion shape dome of bell tower. This inspired other churches in Bavaria to adopt the design. You must visit this church if you pass by Augsburg.
