Baden-Baden, Protected landscape area near Baden-Baden, Germany

Baden-Baden is a landscape protection area of about 81 km², designated in 1981, covering most of the undeveloped land in the centre and east of the city of Baden-Baden. It lies mainly in the Northern Black Forest and is largely wooded, cut by deeply incised stream valleys, with small meadows, orchards and vineyards near the built-up edge. It also includes inner-city parks such as the Lichtentaler Allee and the Kurgarten.

The Regierungspräsidium Karlsruhe designated the area as a Landschaftsschutzgebiet by ordinance on 14 July 1981. The protected area covers about 81 km², nearly 60% of Baden-Baden's municipal territory, mostly in the Northern Black Forest. It lies within the Naturpark Schwarzwald Mitte/Nord and borders the Untere Murg and Bühlertal protected landscapes.

The protected area takes in inner-city green spaces: the Lichtentaler Allee, the Kurgarten, the grounds of the 1981 Landesgartenschau, the Hauptfriedhof and the Friedhof Lichtental. The Lichtentaler Allee is a tree-lined avenue in the centre of Baden-Baden, and the 1981 state garden show left its park layout in the town.

The area covers about 81 km², mostly in the Northern Black Forest, and reaches the city boundary at the Badener Höhe and Merkur hills. It also takes in inner-city green spaces such as the Lichtentaler Allee, the Kurgarten and the main cemetery. Parts of the south overlap with the Schwarzwald National Park.

The protected area covers about 81 km², nearly 60% of Baden-Baden's municipal territory, and was designated by the Karlsruhe regional council on 14 July 1981. Within it lie the Lichtentaler Allee, the 1981 state garden show grounds, the Kurgarten and the Hauptfriedhof. It also overlaps the Schwarzwald National Park and the Battert Bannwald near Ebersteinburg.
