Baden bei Wien is a world-renowned spa town south of Vienna, famous since Roman times for its sulfurous healing springs. Known as Aquae in antiquity, the warm springs were popular with the Romans, but the city reached its zenith in the early 19th century as an imperial summer residence. The town's architecture is predominantly Biedermeier, giving it an elegant and harmonious appearance. Baden is part of the UNESCO World Heritage site Great Spa Towns of Europe, highlighting its historical significance as a premier health resort. Culturally, the city is deeply connected to Ludwig van Beethoven, who composed parts of his Ninth Symphony while staying here. Today, Baden attracts visitors with Austria's largest casino, the magnificent Kurpark, and the Rosarium, which features over 600 different varieties of roses.
The most pleasant time to visit is Jun–Aug.
