Experience the history of Baden on a fascinating journey through time - from Roman bathing ceremonies to the modern day. This tour sheds light on the city's most important eras and brings its development to life.

The journey begins with the Romans at the bend in the Limmat, who made Baden famous for its thermal springs. It continues into the Middle Ages, when Baden was granted city rights and became the secret capital of the Swiss Confederation. Exciting anecdotes in front of the historic walls show how Baden established its tradition as an important congress location with the Tagsatzungen - a role that continues to this day. A gripping insight into the eventful history of a unique city.
