The Badenfahrt is the largest urban folk festival in Switzerland and radiates far beyond the region. No wonder, because it only takes place every ten years and the anticipation is always huge! It is also the time when the "Baden spirit" is particularly strong...
Just imagine: A second city is being created in the city! A series of restaurants, installations, stages and bars are set up in the streets and alleys. All thought out, planned, built, festively decorated and put into operation by countless volunteers. Thus they contribute to the unique character of this tradition.

By the way, the name "Badenfahrt" comes from the Middle Ages, when people used to travel to the city's thermal springs to bathe. It all began in 1923, when, in the sign of the awakening after the First World War, a great celebration was held in honor of the Peace Congress of 1714. The community of the people of Baden was celebrated. The sense of home was a sure compass in the uncertain times of that time.
