St. Anna Kirche is Augsburg’s main Protestant church. It was built in 1321 as a Carmelite monastery church. It blends Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Classicism styles, featuring the Fugger Chapel (1518), the earliest Renaissance structure in Bavaria, and the Gothic Goldsmiths’ Chapel (1420) with frescoes.

Augsburg is known for having one of the biggest and most beautiful Christmas markets. It usually starts the last weekend in November and closes on 24 December. Make sure to go to Rathausplatz and the surrounding areas hosting this market if you are in Augsburg in December. Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday at 18:00 the Engelesspiel takes place where 24 people dressed as angels appear in front of the town hall (Rathaus). Make sure to try the Glühwein (mulled wine). You can also get a bottle as a souvenir. For food, there are many stalls selling German fast food like Bratwurst or Schupfnudeln.
