That is because his landlord, an extremely enterprising coppersmith, had recognised the potential for making more money with the famous Beethoven. Driven by an almost demonic inspiration, Beethoven made a habit of writing on the house's windowsills when short of paper. He scribbled long sums, musical ideas and all manner of "colourful thoughts" on them, so that these pieces of lime wood became a form of diary. In the summer of 1822, a family from North Germany observed him at his work, and bought the pieces of wood from the smith for a "bundle" of money. Once the smith had recognised the value of a single windowsill, it was no great difficulty to sell all four of them to spa guests. When the maestro learned of this rather surreal transaction, he is said to have broken out in veritably Homeresque laughter. Of the many prestigious guests listed in the historic spa registers of the city of Baden, Ludwig van Beethoven is certainly the most famous. From 1804 onwards, he spent at least 13 summers in Baden to take the healing sulphuric spring water and cure his ailments. He was particularly enamoured of the beautiful nature found in the Helenental valley, and composed numerous masterpieces of musical history amidst this unique rural idyll. Probably his most famous piece composed in Baden is the 9th Symphony and its famous "Ode to Joy". This is why Baden is today also known as the "City of the European Anthem"! Beethoven – an idiosyncratic companion Beethoven was a difficult presence in the City of Baden and the terror of every landlord. One of his antisocial habits was to loudly play the piano at unsociable hours, to pace up and down when composing while growling, howling and stamping with his feet. This was why he was rarely welcomed a second time by the same landlord. One exception to this was at the house in Rathausgasse 10 in Baden, where he worked on his 9th ARNULF RAINER MUSEUM The ARNULF RAINER MUSEUM in Baden bei Wien brings together the architectural splendour of the former Frauenbad and the oeuvre of the worldfamous artist Arnulf Rainer. The work of this Baden native (*1929) is presented in a richly faceted way through two exhibitions a year, as well as through monographs and in dialogues with his contemporaries and fellow artists. International, long-time aficionados such as Helmut Friedel (director of the Städtische Galerie at the Lenbachhaus in Munich) and Rudi Fuchs (former director of the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam) curate the exhibitions. Through exhibitions, events, guided tours, art education programmes for children and young people, and publications, a regional as well as international public is thus provided with comprehensive insights into Arnulf Rainer's works, which play a pivotal role in the collections of the world's greatest museums.

MUSIC IS IN THE AIR Bühne Baden, from the Musical „Hairspray“ © Christian Husar Baden – city of music Bühne Baden Baden owes its good reputation as the city of music and operettas to the imperial court and, of course, the artists. Mozart, Beethoven, Schubert, Strauß, Lanner – they all chose Baden as their summer resort and found inspiration in the busy social life, the vineyards and the charming landscape in the Vienna Woods. To this day, the cultural life in Baden is intensely vibrant and diversified. The Stadttheater and the Sommerarena in the Kurpark form the two venues of Bühne Baden with a schedule which is above all dedicated to the operetta in all its facets and which has become a trademark. But musicals and ballets also feature here, as do guest performances by the Landestheater Niederösterreich (Lower Austrian State Theatre) during the winter season. Two operettas, one musical, one ballet evening and concerts form the 2016 summer programme at Bühne Baden. In 2016, the Sommerarena Baden will celebrate its 110-year anniversary! Embedded in the unique gardens of the Kurpark, this gem of the Art Nouveau style in a unique historic setting is a venue for discerning entertainment. With its closable glass roof, the Sommerarena defies every kind of weather, and guarantees unforgettably atmospheric summer evenings in the magical ambience of the Kurpark Baden! Whether it the summer spa concerts in spa park, the Operetta Festival in the summer arena, the winter season of Baden's municipal theatre, alternative art and youth culture in the “Theater am Steg”, or the shows and events at the Casino Baden – there is always something happening here. „Die Fledermaus“, Barbara Payha & Sebastian Reinthaller © Christian Husar 8 Sommerarena, © Lukas Beck 9 Herbert Fischerauer Cultural Manager & Winner of the Culture Award The variety of the cultural events in Baden is impressive! First-class ensembles and soloists enrich the theatrical and concert offerings, a variety of exhibitions provide insights into the world of yesterday and today, and artists from all genres shape the feel of the city and its parks at numerous outdoor festivals.

On about 3,500 square metres visitors can choose from numerous options in the generous water and sauna setting. A whirlpool, exercise, vital and children’s pool along with an outdoor cloverleaf pool and the outdoor sulphurous pool filled with the sulphurous water of Baden’s healing spring, provide relaxation and fun.

The direct connection to the spa centre of Baden and the cooperation of spa physicians and sports scientists provide guests with ideal care. More than 4 million litres of sulphurous thermal water with a temperature of 32 to 36 °C are gushing from 14 natural sulphurous thermal springs in Baden every day. A gentle form of gymnastic exercise, qui gong helps prevent and treat health complaints. The conscious use of qui exercises influences and soothes the vegetative nervous system, lowers blood pressure, strengthens the immune system and regulates stress hormones. It also improves mood and the ability to calmly tackle everyday life and deal with stress constructively. The latest findings in brain research show that thoughts and emotions influence bodily processes, just as regulating muscle tension has a positive effect on mood, for example. Qui gong has been respecting the close connection between body and mind for over 2,500 years. The shaking exercise is a holistic and self-contained qi gong exercise. The gentle shaking of the body is particularly recommended for people with symptoms of stagnation and tension. Regular practice of this exercise aids life-care, relaxes the musculature, stimulates the lymphatic system, increases physical awareness and promotes a feeling of vitality. The “yellow-golden” water is the basis for soothing bathing enjoyment and a comprehensive range of spa and therapy offers: Traditional cures like sulphurous baths, poultices, massages and underwater therapy are part of the repertoire offered by Badener Kurbetriebs GmbH together with Gesundheits- und Kurhotel Badener Hof, the Römertherme and Badener Kurzentrum with the latest competency centre for spine and musculoskeletal system. Wellness oases with luxurious beauty packages and pampering programs are offered by the Römertherme as well as the hotels of Baden.

To allow the rose to optimally absorb water and nutrients, cut the stem with an approx. 3 cm diagonal cut. Add a preservative to the water to regulate its PH value and prevent bacterial growth. (You can purchase this from a good florist or specialist flower market.) Please note that roses like to stand in plenty of water, and that the leaves and branches should therefore not be submerged, as this facilitates mould formation. The flower water should be changed every two to three days, and the rose should be freshly cut with each change of water. I wish you lots of enjoyment with your flowers!

Christa Klancnik-Mayer from Waldmayer vineyard Master vintner, cellarer & category winner 2015 17 BEING ACTIVE IN THE VIENNA WOODS View of the Rauheneck ruins, photographed from the Rauhenstein ruin Treading delightful paths Even in the olden days, when the imperial family was still vacationing in Baden bei Wien, they know about the invigorating effect of gentle exercise outdoors… Not athletic agony but the joy of fresh forest air and the knowledge of doing something for your body – that is the “sports understanding” in the Vienna Woods. On two wheels, on horseback or on your own two feet – numerous paths are ready to take you through Vienna Woods. From the Vienna Basin to the Traisen and Gölsen area: 1,300 square kilometres of intact nature in the immediate proximity of a megacity are a unique setting worldwide. Undulating wooded sandstone hills in the west, steep chalkstone rocks in the east, broadleaf and pine forests, interrupted by meadows and fields, shape the landscape. 18 Tour suggestions Whether on the musical Beethoven hiking path, the romantic “Wegerl during the Helenental – paths through Helenental valley” or the spiritual places of the Via Sacra – witnesses of the long historical past can be found everywhere. These also include Mayerling, the site of the tragedy surrounding crown prince Rudolph, and Heiligenkreuz monastery where monks sing powerful „Gregorianian chants”. But there is another destination that may entice many a hiker or bicyclist: the wine growing on these romantic hills can be tasted in many small taverns along the bicycling and hiking trails. Length: approx. 30 km, including journey from and to Baden Altitude: 650 m Duration: approx. 2 hours for experienced cyclists Lindkogel – stop-off at the "Eisernes Tor" – Exit "Raiffeisen Trail" The classic Lindkogel route through the Helenental and Sattelbach up to the so-called "Eisernes Tor" ("Iron Gate"), the look-out tower and refuge. A stop here is always worthwhile! Great food, friendly hosts and a meeting-point for many cyclists. On from the Eisernes Tor refuge via a technically challenging stretch towards Sooss. Shortly before the "Schneebergblick" turn-off, turn left into the downhill trail signposted "Raiffeisen Trail". Signposted with a sign bearing the Raiffeisen emblem. This speedy and challenging downhill trail requires some skill and control over the bike. Careful! There are some stone steps and jumps which should be approached slowly the first time round. You get plenty of distance and air time here. The downhill trail leads directly into the beautiful wine-producing town of Sooss, where a visit to the wine tavern is almost obligatory! 19 Axel Nemetz Hotelier in Baden bei Wien & amateur cyclist As a passionate cyclist, I find that the thermal region around Baden, with the Anninger and Lindkogel hills, offers the perfect blend of options! Whether it's with my racing bike along the Schwechat river through the majestic Helenental towards Alland, Sittendorf or Weißenbach an der Triesting, or a short and sweet outing on my mountain bike via Gaaden to our local hill, the "Anninger": you will find the right route and degree of difficulty for every riding style and ability level. Short, steep uphill stretches, technically varied sections and lightning-fast downhill stretches make the region ideal for a short or longer outing with my bike in Baden bei Wien.
