Bad Bellingen, municipality in Germany
Bad Bellingen is a spa town in the Markgräflerland region, situated between the Rhine River and extensive vineyards. It is known for its natural thermal springs with mineral-rich water that has attracted visitors for over a hundred years seeking health and relaxation.
The region has used its thermal springs for generations, but the spa town developed when visitors began seeking the healing waters in the 20th century. Official recognition as a city came in 1975, followed in 1978 by a coat of arms featuring symbols of the Rhine, thermal water, and grapes.
Bad Bellingen has deep roots in wine production, reflected in the golden grape on its coat of arms that symbolizes the vineyard tradition. Walking through the town, you encounter wineries and wine taverns where locals and visitors gather to share meals and conversation.
The town is easily accessible by car via the A5 highway and is close to Euro Airport Basel-Mulhouse for international visitors. On site you will find schools, doctors, shops, and train connections, while hotels and guesthouses provide comfortable accommodation options.
The thermal springs here rank among the best in Germany, with water that emerges naturally hot from the earth. This feature transformed the town from a simple village into a popular destination for health tourism.
