Baden is one of the best thermal resorts in Austria, which has been famous for its healing springs since the time of the Roman Empire under the name Thermae Pannonicae. The hot sulfur springs of Baden were used by the Romans for more than one year, so now the Roman baths have their name quite deservedly (open all year round).

In total, there are fifteen baths in Baden, thirteen of which are warm, there are also outdoor summer baths. The water temperature of warm baths is from +22 °C to +36 °C, the key ingredient in local waters is calcium sulfate.

Not far from Baden, this valley is crossed by the ancient aqueduct of the Viennese aqueduct. At its entrance on the right bank of the river you can see the ruins of the 12th century Rauchenek castle. And at the base is the Chateau Weilburg castle of 1820-1825, which appeared thanks to the will of the Archduke Karl of Austria, the winner of the battle of Aspern.

ABOUT TREATMENT AND REST IN BADEN

In Baden, the waters of 14 sulfur springs with a water temperature of 30-36 ° C are used for medical purposes, which provide about four million liters of sulfuric water per day, containing calcium, sodium, magnesium, sulfate and chloride.

The long-tested, but forgotten treatment with sulfuric waters is gaining popularity again.

For millennia, this therapy has been used successfully in the treatment of all kinds of rheumatic diseases, spinal wear and tear, and diseases affecting the joints. Sulfuric waters are also used in the rehabilitation therapy of patients who have received sports injuries or injuries in accidents, and, in addition, to restore the body after orthopedic operations and for preventive purposes.

Sulfuric thermal waters penetrate the human body through the skin and mucous membranes. They affect various metabolic processes in the body and thus have a positive effect on the state of the whole organism.

According to a long-standing tradition in Baden, patients receive treatments in communal pools filled with sulfuric thermal water, which gives them the opportunity to socialize with other patients during the treatment. Subaquatic therapy and hydromassages used in Baden have gained wide popularity: in water, a person's mobility increases, due to which the effectiveness of therapeutic massages doubles. For the regeneration and removal of toxins from the body, a course of treatment with grapes is recommended, which should be taken in the fall.

The parks of Baden and the nearby Vienna Woods provide opportunities for mechanotherapy. In addition, vacationers can visit all kinds of sports complexes, participate in guided tours, as well as cycling, spend time playing tennis or golf. The medicinal products offered in Baden can only be used with a doctor's prescription.

Two outdoor pools: a herbal pool and a pool with sulfuric mineral water are used for swimming in both summer and winter. In the pools for relaxation there are areas equipped with hydromassage. Complete relaxation is facilitated by the original lighting of the pools and musical accompaniment.

A wide range of different saunas: tepidarium (40°C), three herbal and aromatic baths, Turkish bath, Finnish sauna (95°C), bio-sauna with sunlight (60°C) complete the range of wellness possibilities of the complex.
