Acerca de este destino

<h2>2,000 Years of Healing Waters</h2><p>Baden-Baden's thermal spa tradition dates back to Roman times when Emperor Caracalla visited in the 3rd century to treat his arthritis. The town's name literally means "baths-baths," reflecting its deep connection to its healing springs that emerge from 2,000 meters underground, carrying 3,000 dissolved minerals including sodium, chloride, fluorine, and lithium.</p><h3>Friedrichsbad - Roman-Irish Tradition</h3><p>Opened in 1877, the magnificent Friedrichsbad offers a traditional 3-hour Roman-Irish bathing ritual in neoclassical splendor. This textile-free experience (except Wednesdays and Saturdays) takes visitors through 16 stations of thermal pools, steam rooms, and relaxation areas. The architectural masterpiece combines Roman bathing culture with Irish hot-air baths, creating a meditative journey through varying temperatures and treatments.</p><h3>Caracalla Therme - Modern Luxury</h3><p>The contemporary Caracalla Therme spans 5,000 square meters with family-friendly thermal pools (32-38°C), outdoor bathing areas, and an adults-only textile-free sauna complex. Open daily 8am-10pm, it offers a more flexible spa experience with multiple thermal pools, whirlpools, steam rooms, and various saunas, all fed by the same ancient healing springs.</p><h3>The Healing Springs</h3><p>Twelve natural springs produce 800,000 liters daily of thermal water from depths of 2,000 meters. The water, aged 12,000-17,000 years, reaches the surface at up to 68°C - the hottest thermal water in Baden-Württemberg. Rich in minerals and silicic acid, these waters have attracted visitors seeking healing and relaxation for millennia.</p><h3>World-Class Spa Destination</h3><p>Baden-Baden stands among Europe's most prestigious spa destinations, combining historic elegance with modern wellness facilities.
