About Kriegshaber

What are the main landmarks in Kriegshaber?

The synagogue leads. Synagoge Ulmer Straße is the name Kriegshaber is best known by on the heritage list, and the Zollhaus, the old customs house, has an entry of its own. Churches take four entries.

Heiligste Dreifaltigkeit and St. Judas Thaddäus carry entries of their own, with a Thomas chapel and the Evangelical Lutheran Thomas church listed beside them. Houses make up the remainder, a long line of them entered as former Judenhäuser, together with the officers' mess that became the Kulturhaus Abraxas.

What is the history of Kriegshaber?

Kriegshaber's past is on its walls. A synagogue on Ulmer Straße and a long series of houses recorded as former Judenhäuser mark the presence of a Jewish community in this part of Augsburg over generations. Other trades left marks too.

The Zollhaus recalls a customs house kept here, while the officers' mess that serves as the Kulturhaus Abraxas records a military use before its conversion.

Where is Kriegshaber?

Kriegshaber lies inside Augsburg, in Bavaria, close enough to Stadtbergen that the heritage list covering it takes in entries there too.
