The Kursaal in Baden is a place whose history is as multifaceted as the city itself.

The Kursaal in Baden is a place whose history is as multifaceted as the city itself. Opened as a magnificent cultural center for discerning spa guests, the building soon became a lively gathering place for locals and travelers alike. Over the decades, it became the city’s main hall, where theater performances, glittering balls, and concerts delighted the public.
But time did not stand still: Today, the Kursaal is home to a modern casino that attracts players from near and far. The surrounding park also tells its own story, from well-maintained walking paths and artistic garden designs to urban gathering spots.

This tour takes you on a journey through the dramatic history of its origins, the astonishing transformations, and the surprising connections that shape the Kursaal and its park. Experience how tradition and modernity come together in a fascinating way.

Meeting point / End point: Parkbistro (in the Kurpark)
