The Wiesbaden Welcome Guide

The free Wiesbaden Welcome Guide, which is published by Goebel Publikationen, contains a lot of useful information for new citizens.

Hessian state capital, convention and health centre surrounded by countryside, place of residence with a high quality of living, city of the hot springs, mansions and wine – these synonyms stand for the multifaceted city of Wiesbaden with its over 2000-year history. Wiesbaden is situated in the heart of Germany in the middle of the Rhine-Main Region some 30 minutes from Frankfurt Airport.

With more than 270,000 inhabitants, Wiesbaden is one of the major German cities that stand for a sporty, cultural and socially vibrant life. The events calendar of the state capital is colourful and bursting with things to visit: sports events that draw huge crowds such as the Ironman 70.3 are just as popular as the Theatrium, the "classic" among Germany's street festivals, the ten-day Rheingau Wine Festival, the Wiesbaden City Festival that guides its visitors to the most beautiful squares and quarters in the city or the Twinkling Star Christmas Market during Advent.

Wiesbaden is also a modern health resort with a longstanding tradition. Even the Romans appreciated the healing and therapeutic effect of the 26 hot springs. Wiesbaden has transformed its good reputation as a "classic spa" into a recognised centre for the treatment of rheumatic and orthopaedic disorders. You can experience the therapeutic diversity of the hot springs in Wiesbaden's thermal baths. Beyond that, numerous parks and green belts invite you to linger and relax.

In Wiesbaden and the surrounding area there are plenty of leisure time activities to choose from. A shopping spree in the city centre is eventul, inspiring and guarantees constant variety. Next to major chain stores, a large number of retailers and exclusive boutiques promise a top-notch shopping pleasure. And afterwards the 1,200 restaurants and bars invite you to enjoy a great evening in good company.

All together Wiesbaden is one of the most beautiful cities in Germany and certainly a perfect city to live in. The Wiesbaden Welcome Guide includes very useful information, places of interest in the city and its vicinity and provides you with everything you have to know in order to make your Wiesbaden stay a perfect experience.
