Bad Gastein
Bad Gastein – a source of eternal youth. Pure myth.
Breathtaking.
Inspiring.
Transforming.
A world spa. At an altitude of 1000 meters. Surrounded by magnificent mountain panoramas.
Absolutely surreal and unique in every season, the present and the past, the contemporary and the traditional are artfully combined here. A powerhouse of contrasts. And has been for centuries:
Ice-cold thundering giant waterfalls meet healing hot springs. Wild, romantic nature meets grandiose Wilhelminian architecture. Mindfulness meets adventure. Enchanted grand hotels meet gigantic mountain giants. FeinGeist meets ZeitGeist. Intoxicating places of power meet contemporary art. Bizarre Belle Époque meets Brutalism. Empty space meets start-up. Alpine snacks to supper clubs. Rustic huts with fireplaces and Kaiserschmarrn on vernissages in galleries. Bad Gastein is an experience 365 days a year.
Let the muse kiss you! In a unique symbiosis of all these contrasts, which have already seduced urban nomads and creative people from all over the world – from Einstein, Schubert, Klimt, Strauss or Thomas Mann to the annual summer retreat in our place of longing, deeply hidden dreams and longings come true.
