Here you will find, among other things, an Italian restaurant, the beer garden of the Lägerebräu brewery and the non-profit recycling center Wendepunkt. From here you can cross two bridges (not free of steps) to the other side of the Limmat to the Webermühle.

Wettingen Abbey (Kloster Wettingen)

Highlight • Religious Site

We were there for the exhibition "Blickpunkt Bildung" at Kantonsschule Wettingen, but another time we return by bike or on foot. The place invites you to linger. There are many small restaurants on this beautiful place.

Governor's Castle, Baden

Highlight • Castle

The Niderhus was built in the 12th century as a counterpart to Stein Castle. Over the centuries it was rebuilt several times by different owners (Counts of Lenzburg, Counts of Kyburg, etc.) and has housed the Baden Museum since the beginning of the 20th century.

The wooden bridge in Baden

Highlight • Bridge

The covered wooden bridge is a very special gem of Baden and crosses the Limmat at its narrowest point, the Klus, between Schlossberg and Lägern. The two banks of the Limmat were first connected by a bridge at the Enge in the 13th century. The current wooden bridge has at least five predecessors, but all of them were destroyed over the centuries by floods, ice flows or acts of war. Until the high bridge was built, the narrow wooden bridge and the narrow slag heap served as the main traffic route. The design for the structure, which was built in 1809, was by the Laufenburg master builder Blasius Balteschwiler. He designed a beam structure that spans the 37-meter-wide river without pillars; the bridge itself is 39 meters long. After a year of construction, the bridge was opened in 1810.
