Baden-Baden

Baden-Baden - Communication Hub at the Centre of Europe

The quiet spa, steeped in tradition, has evolved over the past few years to become a European-wide communication centre. This was due not least to the vivid vicinity to Strasbourg, the optimum traffic infrastructure, the expanding airport, and the dynamic cultural scenery. The reputation of the city as a venue for modern congresses and events was strengthened by a number of international events. No matter which event took place - the "Olympic Congress", the "World Dance Gala", the elections of the "Sportsman of the Year" or special scientific congresses - the spectators were impressed by the operating efficiency of the organising centres. Papermakers will be well acquainted with Baden-Baden as the traditional venue of the annual ZELLCHEMING meeting.

Baden-Baden - Capital of Culture and Wellness in the Black Forest

While casino, horse racing, and golf courts have contributed to the Baden-Baden atmosphere for quite a long time, cultural life receives important impulses from the newly built festival building (Festspielhaus) with top-class events. Theatre, philharmonics, and the symphony orchestra establish a cultural basis at the highest level. Guarantors for the young and vivid cultural scene of the media location are the Südwestfunk Radio with its distinct events like the New Pop Festival, the recently founded Media Academy, and the publishing companies. A large wellness and regimen programme is offered by Baden-Baden, the city of spa and thermal springs. In the mild, nearly Mediterranean climate a number of outdoor sports activities can be practised throughout the year.

Baden-Baden – The Place Where Gourmets Meet in Baden-Württemberg

The cultivated hotels, first-rate Baden cuisine and "wine spoilt by the sun" contribute not least to the fact that Baden-Baden is regarded as the town of epicures. Some of the best restaurants in Germany and France are found in this region.
