Luggage storage at the station and airport

Many visitors to Augsburg arrive with time to fill before a hotel check-in or after a holiday rental check-out, and bags can make that wait awkward.

Several of the city's main museums provide lockers or a staffed cloakroom for bulky items, though smaller bags may be subject to tighter restrictions. Getting around by tram and bus is straightforward, with most luggage carried free of charge on regional services. At Augsburg Hauptbahnhof, the official luggage lockers are accessible to anyone visiting the station, not just rail passengers. The airport is about 15 minutes from Augsburg city centre by public transport or car. From Augsburg Hauptbahnhof, you can reach the airport by bus to the stop named Flughafen Abzw (Einfahrt Flughafen).

Luggage storage and bag rules at attractions

The Kunstsammlungen und Museen Augsburg requires large handbags, backpacks, and luggage to be left in its cloakrooms or lockers. The Jüdisches Museum Augsburg Schwaben goes further, prohibiting larger backpacks, suitcases, and travel bags entirely, with smaller bags stored in lockers.

The Diözesanmuseum St. Afra also asks that all bulky items, including any format of bag or backpack, be placed in lockers or left at the cloakroom for safety and conservation reasons.

Getting around Augsburg with luggage

Augsburg is Bavaria's third-largest city and a university town, so trams and buses are the practical way to move around. Königsplatz is the main transit junction, where tram lines 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 intersect with city and regional bus lines. On AVV regional bus lines, hand luggage and other items travel free as long as they don't endanger safety, disturb passengers, or block seats. The swaxi ridesharing service permits luggage of normal hand-luggage size, provided it's safely stowed. If you're heading to the Botanischer Garten, take bus line 32 from Hauptbahnhof, Königsplatz, or Moritzplatz to the Zoo/Botanischer Garten stop. The city also draws travellers for events like trade fairs and conventions, thanks to its central position and accessible infrastructure.
