Grand Casino Baden

The Kurtheater is a guest performance house.

It is located at the Limmat river 10 minutes by foot from the town centre. Enjoy a coffee in the gorgeous Atrium Hotel Blume and marvel at the stunning atrium.

Once you are there you may want to go to a thermal bath. The city is named Baden (to bath/bathe) because of the natural geothermal springs were ducted into baths by the Romans. The springs are claimed to be the most mineral rich in Europe. The main bath is called Fortyseven.

For those interested in Impressionist art. The museum is housed in the former villa of Sidney and Jenny Brown-Sulzer. Brown was the founder of BBC, which in 1991 - after the merger with Swedish Asea - was renamed to ABB. A beautiful self-service café belongs to the museum, which is perfect for a relaxing break after the museum visit.

The museum gives a full historical overview about the baths and industry, that shaped the town. The museum is housed in a castle, which was used, among other things, as a school, hospital and prison before the museum moved in 1913.

If you are an avid hiker you should go for this tour. It takes around 4 to 6 hours to do the 13 km all the way to Dielsdorf, but it is also possible to descend earlier towards Wettingen. You will be rewarded with views to the alps and the black forest in Germany. Proper shoes are important. Take a train/bus back from Dielsdorf to Baden. A gpx track can be found in the link to the MySwitzerland website. The start of the trail is close to the wooden bridge.
