What to do and see in Baden, Austria: The Best Places and Tips
Also known as Baden bei Wien (Baden near Vienna), this spa town is chosen by those looking for a little bit of relaxation. The origin of the city goes back to the Romans who were the first to enjoy Baden’s sulphurous mineral springs. Later, Baden became a favorite of Austrian emperors who would come from Vienna (26 km) to enjoy a bath in hot waters. Today, visitors fall in love with the many historic buildings, monuments and picnic areas in beautiful parks around the city. Connoisseurs of classical music can follow in the footsteps of Baden’s most famous visitor, Ludwig van Beethoven, who visited Baden numerous times.

Baden has done well to have such great Gardens.
The Doblhoff is a real delight.
Tree-lined paths a huge lake, Fountains, rosarium and an Orangerie means there is something for everyone.
There is also a huge kiddy play area.
A delight was seeing a mother duck with her offspring powering their way around the lake.
The lake and ponds are full of fish and quirky furniture decorations.
There is boat hire on the lake as well as a kiosk and cafe.
A great visual feast.
Don't forget to smell the roses.

This small museum is well worth a visit if you're in the area. The upstairs rooms show where Beethoven lived and entertained. On the ground floor there is an area dedicated to his 9th Symphony which plays a recording whilst also analyzing the work and Reading through the manuscript. In the cellar there is a interactive display where you can learn more about sound.

Enjoy our theatre during a walk through the city of Baden or visit one of our shows during your stay in Baden or Vienna.
Reviewed By Hans_Staden - Vienna, Austria
The Stadttheater Baden, housed (during the normal season) in a small opera house, specializes in operetta - and they are nearly perfect in it. During the summer season in the Arena in the park, also very nice. Can't say anything about musical and theatre (there I frankly have my doubts), but operetta cannot be bettered.
6. Burgruine Rauhenstein Castle

Reviewed By DezPapp - Baden, Austria
Made the climb from the street named after Rauhenstein following fairly obvious marks. Great view before sunset. Even better from the top of the tower but better bring headlights for the stair climbing inside the tower.
Mind the ticks as well and don't come here when it's wet.
There is a bonus attraction - the medieval style toilet.
Park down on the main road.

You can see and learn a lot about the austrian empire of the Habsburger. It´s a Museum and not a Hotel. Downstairs is a famous Konditorei.
8. Ruine Rauheneck

Reviewed By DezPapp - Baden, Austria
First I made an early morning trail running from the Doblhof area of Baden. It was really pleasant with all the pines in full odor. Then with the kids a few days later on an afternoon walk. It was a lot more enertaining and agreeable than the neighboring Rauhenstein.
The ruin itself is in a better shape, especially the stairs climb up within the old (watch)tower.
9. Arnulf Rainer Museum
Overall Ratings
4 based on 28 reviews
Arnulf Rainer’s hometown of Baden pays tribute to this versatile and busy painter with a museum devoted to his work – and housed in a former bath that is a gem of 19th-century architecture.
Reviewed By admybf - Vancouver
We had never heard of this artist until we stepped off the Badener Bahn (train) in Baden-Bei-Wien. The museum, in a former Hot Springs Bathhouse, is directly across the street. Admittedly Rainer's work takes some getting used to, but if you can't overcome that hurdle, there's always the interesting surroundings of the essentially untouched bathouse to walk through, including the cubicles each with paintings or videos of the artist at work. Between the volume of works on display and the catalogues with explanations of each, one will be able to learn quite a lot about this still-living Austrian painter.
