Baden is a city and resort in Lower Austria, 26 km south of Vienna. It has a population of 31,000 inhabitants. It is located at the mouth of the romantic Helenental, on the bank of Schwechat, and used as the main summer resort for the wealthy inhabitants of the capital.

Also known as Baden bei Wien (Baden near Vienna), this spa town is chosen by those looking for a bit of relaxation. Visitors fall in love with the many historic buildings, monuments and picnic areas in the beautiful parks around the city. Baden was once the imperial summer residence. In the 1800s the emperor spent his summers here, and this for the quality of the hot springs and the sulphurous waters. Over four million liters of natural sulfuric thermal water at an average temperature of 32 degrees Celsius springs daily from the 14 natural sulfurous thermal springs in Baden. Therefore, the destination is not for a day, but for a weekend. Here you will find Finnish saunas, aromatherapy steam baths, a bio sauna and an Ottoman steam bath. In addition, as a tourist attraction you can also enjoy the Beethoven Memorial House, one of the biggest tourist attractions for the city, because here the manuscripts, photographs and books of the composer remained motionless. Equally interesting are the Municipal Theater, the Medieval Palace (now a luxury hotel), the thermal resort building and the Grand Casino, the second largest in Europe, after the one in Lisbon.
