Austria Styria Bad Gleichenberg
Bad Gleichenberg has been an official health spa since 1926. However, the healing spring water was already discovered during Roman times. In the Biedermeier era the spa was in full bloom and became a popular travel destination. The park and many buildings are impressive monuments to the prosperity of this period. In 1837 Countess Emma von Wickenburg laid the foundations of the large park, planting exotic trees and bushes. This magnificent parkland with statues, sculptures and fountains of the Biedermeier period is still the heart of the spa. In the recent past Bad Gleichenberg has become a major centre for tourism due to the Tourism Schools and the FH Joanneum University of Applied Sciences.
