The Augsburg is a motor-driven passenger ship on the Ammersee , which runs regular service between the towns on the lake in summer . The ship was built in 2008 and named after the third largest city in Bavaria , Augsburg . Since, with the exception of Augsburg, all passenger ships on the Ammersee are named after villages in the Ammersee region, this naming initially caused displeasure in some neighboring communities, but has now been accepted - not least because the Ammersee is a traditional excursion area for the Augsburg population ("Augsburger Meer") .
