Visit the (Thermal public swimming pool), opened from may to september. After the end of the monarchy the community Baden built the thermal public swimming pool in a kind of Art Deco style in 1926 in merely 16 weeks. 5000 m² pool-area and an extensive sandy beach was intended to create the impression of being in an Adriatic open air bath and pool of the old monarchy. In 1930 a section of the parklands of Castle Weilburg was integrated thus turning the open air bath into one of the biggest of Austria.

Take a bath in the Roemertherme. It's a very clean place and very relaxed. If you want to space out in the summer and catch some sun light - that's the place to be... But only during the summer...
