History >linked<

Baden is a place of exchange. For centuries, people from all over the world have been coming to this city on the Limmat. They discuss, negotiate—and bathe. The warm springs draw visitors, envoys gather for the Diet, guests travel here for spa treatments, and pioneers start companies and create jobs. Today, Baden has gone global. People are digitally connected, and physical location is no longer a prerequisite for exchange. In the web age, knowledge is accessed link by link—and that’s exactly how the “contextualizers” in the exhibition work: The interactive stations allow visitors to surf from exhibit to exhibit and move digitally through the physical space.
The linked exhibits are part of the museum’s diverse collection. They emerge from the carefully designed collection wall into the exhibition space, evoking life stories and documenting developments and events. They engage in a dialogue with one another, revealing historical connections.
In the cinema room, you can sink into comfortable armchairs and immerse yourself in historical visual worlds, and then have your photo taken as a spa guest or worker against a fitting backdrop.
Connect with the past and explore the history of a city that has left its mark on the world.
