Baden's industrial history

Thanks to visionary personalities, Baden has developed from an industrial metropolis into an internationally recognized service and work location. This tour shows how the former BBC industrial site has recently been transformed into a modern, lively urban quarter. The focus is on two pioneers from Baden who conquered the world with the development of steam and gas turbines and turned Baden into an "electric city".

The 1990s also brought significant changes, particularly with the redevelopment of Baden North. Anecdotes about a crane operator, the bicycle parking lot, loft apartments and the "Härdöpfelbunker" make the development of the city vivid and tangible. A story full of ingenuity and forward-looking ideas.
