St. Ulrich's and St. Afra's Abbey, Augsburg, Benedictine abbey church in Augsburg, Germany.

St. Ulrich's and St. Afra's Abbey is a former Benedictine monastery in Augsburg whose church, the Basilica of Saints Ulrich and Afra, has a tall tower topped by a green copper onion dome and a white section with clocks and arched windows above a pale yellow body. To the right stands a long red-roofed hall with arched windows behind a central yellow facade with a small green-domed lantern, a round clock and an arched entrance below a triangular pediment. The walls are pale yellow with white trim and the roofs red tiles.

A community of priests caring for St Afra's Church, where her relics were venerated, preceded the monastery. Between 1006 and 1012 Bishop Bruno of Augsburg transferred the canons to the cathedral chapter and installed Benedictine monks from Tegernsee. Abbot Jakob Köplin (1548–1600) obtained recognition of imperial immediacy in 1577, confirmed only in 1643/44. The abbey was dissolved in 1802; in 1805 a French military hospital moved in, and six monks, including the abbot, died of infectious diseases.

The abbey was dissolved in 1802, so no monastic community lives here today; the church now serves as the Basilica of Saints Ulrich and Afra. Its name links two martyrs: Ulrich, Bishop of Augsburg, and Afra, a Roman-era martyr of the city. Their stone sarcophagi are kept in the crypt, and the site remains a place of veneration rather than of cloistered life.

The monastery sits in central Augsburg and is easily accessible on foot, though some areas may have restrictions due to active monastic use. Allow enough time to explore the church and available spaces at a relaxed pace, especially if you wish to attend services.

The crypt holds the stone sarcophagi of Saint Afra and Saint Ulrich, the two patrons the abbey is named for. Afra was a martyr of late Roman Augsburg; Ulrich, bishop here from 923 to 973, was buried in the church he had rebuilt. The relics made the site a pilgrimage centre long before the monks arrived.
