Villa Boveri in Baden is one of the most romantic places in Aargau and at the same time freely accessible. Hidden above the Limmat, visitors are greeted by a beautiful park with old tree-lined avenues, well-tended flower beds, fountains and secluded places to sit. Many locals know the park as an insider tip for walks, picnics or a relaxed date away from the bustle of the town centre.
Particularly impressive is the combination of an English landscape garden and a French terraced garden. Spread over around two hectares are romantic paths, historic sculptures, exotic trees and repeated fine viewpoints. The listed villa dating from 1897 provides the perfect backdrop for photos or a leisurely evening stroll.
For years the park has been a popular spot in Baden for wedding photos and quiet hours for two. Those who wish can bring along a coffee, take a seat on a park bench and let their gaze wander across the well-kept gardens. In spring and summer in particular, an almost castle-park atmosphere arises here in the middle of Baden.
