Amazing little museum on the bank of Aare river, in the middle of fairy-tail little town Baden. Its a „must see“ in this region. Just walk thru the old town - beautiful !!!

Friendly staff. Not much written in English, mostly German. Wheelchair access to part of the museum (an elevator that was locked when we arrived) but the old part (in the tower) is only accessible up a spiral staircase going all the way to the fourth floor. Not allowed to carry bags or drinking water, even on a hot day. They do have free lockers though. No cafe or souvenirs to speak of, though they have a coffee machine. They have air conditioning in the newer section of the museum. Interesting exhibits of history and artifacts. Entrance fee was covered by our city ticket.

the historical museum Baden is at the old wooden bridge on the other side of the old town. The museum itself is divided into an area in the residential tower and a part in the new building. There is a very detailed audio guide for the exhibitions in the residential tower. In the new building you can slip into different costumes, and you can take selfies that you can send to each other via email

A nice Museum to learn about the history of the place. Open on Sundays as well from afternoon.

Interesting museum about the story of Baden from the Romans until modern times. It is worth it.

Fantastic place! We really underestimated how much time to spend here! They had artifacts ranging from beautiful antique furniture to Roman coins to mid-century health equipment and industrial machinery. This really sparked my interest in the town's history. They also had activities for kids that even got me excited, like trying on an armored glove and helmet or posing for a black and white photo that you could send to yourself! The woman working at the front desk was extremely kind and spoke slowly in German so that I could understand her pretty well. My only wish would be that more of the information be translated into English! They had the main exhibit information in English but individual labels for items were in German (understandable, just a bummer for me!)

Definitely worth a visit or more!
