Kaiserhaus Baden

Description

The building on the Hauptplatz, the main square, in Baden was purchased in 1813 by Emperor Francis I, who subsequently came to Baden with his family nearly every year for the summer vacation.

In 1917 the Kaiserhaus became a historically significant location through the relocation of the Army High Command to Baden. Emperor Karl I (Charles) commanded his armies from the Kaiserhaus. Exhibitions have been held in these historic rooms since 2008.

Exhibition

AUFBADEN-ABBADEN in the Kaiserhaus Baden

Spa guests have been drawn from all over the world to the thermal spa for centuries. They plunge into sulphur pools, stroll  through the Kurpark, do gymnastics or doze in the sun in the “Strandbad”. The spa culture of Baden mirrors not only developments in the history of medicine but also social upheavals and political processes. The exhibition “Aufbaden–Abbaden. Spa Culture in Baden” plunges, so to speak, deep into history to sound out thrilling spa stories and effective spa therapies. The Kaiserhaus on the main square, the Hauptplatz in Baden, was purchased in 1813 by Emperor Francis I, who spent his summer vacation in Baden with his family.
