The Lechviertel is characterized by its old and narrow streets, whose historic cobblestone paving has been restored since the 1980s. The district also has a special flair due to the Lech canals , which were mostly covered after the Second World War , but have since been exposed again. Small boutiques , bars and pubs in particular have settled in the winding streets , making the district a magnet for Augsburg residents as well as tourists.

The Ulrichsviertel differs from the adjacent Lechviertel mainly in the architectural style of the houses: Many handcraft houses from the Middle Ages , some of which are still in operation today, are characterized by the characteristic plain tiles on their roofs. In some parts of the district the old city ​​wall is still there and invites you to take a walk. The bar scene is spread over the entire district and creates its own atmosphere with numerous small shops.
