Where to stay in Firnhaberau
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Rooms are thin on the ground here. The 28th Stadtbezirk holds houses, two churches, and the Wasserkraftwerk auf der Wolfzahnau, which leaves the hotels of Augsburg proper a ride away from any stay in Firnhaberau. Anyone staying out here comes for the Wolfzahnau, and the Evangelisch-lutherische Kirche St. Lukas serves the streets that fill the rest.

About Firnhaberau
What are the main landmarks in Firnhaberau?
Three sites carry the register here. The Wasserkraftwerk auf der Wolfzahnau is a hydroelectric station, and it ties this Augsburg district to running water rather than to any row of city monuments. After that come the two churches.
The Evangelisch-lutherische Kirche St. Lukas is the Lutheran church of Firnhaberau, and St. Franziskus is the other church on the district's short list.
What is the history of Firnhaberau?
Numbers tell most of this district's story. Firnhaberau is counted as the 28th Stadtbezirk of Augsburg and fills the 4th Planungsraum on its own, so the two administrative maps of the city agree on its boundary. Water power is the district's industrial mark, at the Wasserkraftwerk auf der Wolfzahnau.
St. Lukas and St. Franziskus stand as the district's churches.
Where is Firnhaberau?
Firnhaberau covers the whole of Augsburg's 4th Planungsraum in Bavaria, and the Wolfzahnau falls inside that same ground.
