Water Towers at the Red Gate (Wassertürme am Roten Tor)

Highlight • Monument

Normally, you can visit this historical marvel of Augsburg's water management every year (usually February/March) at the "Augsburg Open". Highly Recommended. I took part in this tour in 2018 and would like to show you some impressions of it here.

Red Gate at the Waterworks

Highlight • Monument

The waterworks at the Red Gate in Augsburg is the large and small water tower as well as the box tower as seen from the Brunnenmeisterhof (east). The Lochbach, which flows in front of the Oberer Brunnenmeisterhaus and is called Vorderer Lech from here on, is the Brunnenbach, whose water is directed through several openings in the city wall into the Brunnenmeisterhof, drives the water wheels and is pumped up into the water towers.

Martin Luther Square

Highlight • Structure

Martin-Luther-Platz forms a group of squares with Fuggerplatz. It was given its name in 1933 on the occasion of Martin Luther's 450th birthday; before that it was called Annaplatz. In contrast to the Fuggerplatz, the once elegant conversion of the Martin-Luther-Platz could not be preserved: a town house (also 'Münchsches Haus') built by Johann Gottfried Stumpe for Georg Jacob von Köpf in 1770 was destroyed in 1944.
