Baden-Baden maintains economy through thermal bath tourism

Baden-Baden, a German city of 57,000 residents, maintains a robust economy driven by its year-round thermal bath industry. The city's thermal waters emerge from twelve different springs, with temperatures reaching up to 68 degrees Celsius.

The city offers a blend of historical and modern wellness experiences. The Friedrichsbad, which opened in 1877, will mark its 150th anniversary in 2027 and preserves traditional thermal paths. In contrast, the Caracalla Baths provide modern amenities such as saunas and large glass-walled pools.

Historically known as the ‘summer capital of Europe’ during the 19th century, Baden-Baden attracted royalty, aristocrats, and famous writers, including Fyodor Dostoevsky.
