Augustiner Street

The street is a narrow medieval lane known for its brightly colored houses and distinctive wooden bay windows. It historically links Bahnhofstrasse with the Augustinerkirche church and the nearby St. Peterhofstatt square. Formerly the site of an Augustinian abbey, the street retains its traditional architectural character and serves as a notable example of Zurich's medieval urban fabric. Today, it functions as both a sightseeing location and a shopping area within the old city, preserving its cultural and historical significance.
