You don't need to arrange one yourself: Füssen is a spa town, and every guest receives the Füssen Card from their accommodation on arrival – each person travelling with you gets their own card, too. It gives you free bus travel and discounts, for example. If your accommodation is a Königscard partner, you can also use the Königscard's services. Business travellers do not receive a guest card. A separate FAQ explains the guest cards in detail. Our guest cards
As a spa town, Füssen charges a visitor's tax (Kurbeitrag) per person and day; the days of arrival and departure together count as one day. Under the statute in force since 1 January 2025, people aged 16 and over pay EUR 3.00, young people aged 6 to 15 pay EUR 1.50, and children up to 5 are exempt. Reductions apply, for example, to people with disabilities. The tax funds free bus travel, hiking trails and cross-country ski trails, among other things.

A separate accessibility FAQ covers accessible toilets, parking and public transport. Accessibility in Füssen
