January 15, 2026, Blick auf Burg Badenweiler

🏰During the Franco-Dutch War, the castle was blown up by French troops under Marshal Créquy on April 6, 1678, and burned to the ground. It was never rebuilt and was used by the local population as a quarry for a time.

🏰 Badenweiler Castle (also known as Baden Castle) is the prominent landmark of the spa town, perched majestically above the spa gardens. It boasts a history spanning almost 900 years and offers one of the most spectacular viewpoints in the Markgräflerland region.
