Felsentherme Baden bei Wien, located in Austria's most storied spa city just 25 kilometres south of Vienna, draws on the same sulfurous thermal springs that made Baden one of the most fashionable resorts of the Habsburg Empire — Beethoven, Schubert, and Emperor Franz I all sought their restorative waters in this elegant Biedermeier spa town. The sulfurous thermal waters, emerging at approximately 36°C from deep Triassic limestone, are used in Austria's medically supervised Kur system for musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiovascular conditions, continuing a therapeutic tradition recognised since Roman times when the settlement was known as Aquae. Baden bei Wien's remarkable concentration of Biedermeier architecture, casino culture, UNESCO-recognised wine-growing landscape of the Wienerwald, and proximity to Vienna makes Felsentherme one of the most culturally rich thermal spa experiences in Central Europe.
