Drinking hall

The old Trinkhalle building is located near the Casino in Baden-Baden, Germany. The hall’s construction began in 1839, by Freidrich Huebsch, and was completed in 1842. The building was constructed as a place to drink mineral cures, and even today healing water from the Fredrichsquelle and Nuremberg is served to tourists. The 19th century hall was built as a shady shelter where people could walk up and down, talk, watch and be watched while drinking their water.

The paintings on the walls illustrate scenes from old regional legends and fairy tales.
The relief in the gable above the main entrance illustrates the healing power of Baden-Baden's springs. From left to right, sick and old people are coming to the spring, which is impersonated by the nymph in the centre who is giving water to a little child and his mother. On the right side, healthy and joyful young people are dancing and playing with their children.

The Trinkhalle is 100 meters long and shows 14 frescoes depicting legends about Baden-Baden. Inside the Trinkhalle tourists can taste the hot spring water for free.
Additionally the building now houses a tourist information office, a ticket agency, a cafe, and a gift shop. The building is encircled by relaxing gardens, and has a bust of Keiser Wilhelm 1st standing in front.

The drinking hall is open daily from 10am until 6:30pm.
It is recommended not to drink more than 400 ml of this strange, rather salty water per day, but this is one of the things one simply has to do when in Baden-Baden.

Accommodation in the area can be found in hotels like Abarin Hotel or Schlosshotel Bühlerhöhe with prices starting from 65 euros.
