FORTYSEVEN Wellness-Therme sits on Baden's historic 'Grosse Bäder' bathing grounds, tapping the Verenahof thermal spring, whose 47°C water gives the facility its name and is described locally as the most mineral-rich thermal water in Switzerland. Baden's roughly 20 thermal springs, ranging from 37 to 52°C, were known to the Romans as Aquae Helveticae and have drawn bathers ever since, later valued in the 19th century for treating gout and rheumatism. Designed by architect Mario Botta, the modern complex opened in 2021 with three outdoor and five indoor pools, twelve saunas, and the 'Kosmos' relaxation space with sound design by musician Boris Blank.
Baden's thermal springs were known to the Romans as Aquae Helveticae ('Waters of the Helvetii') and gave the town its German name, which derives from the word for 'baths.' The waters were prized again in the time of Charlemagne and, in the 19th century, for treating gout and rheumatism.
