Staufen is one of the most picturesque villages in the south of Baden, situate amid magnificent vineyards. More than 1200 years of history, Staufen offers peace and undisturbed tranquillity. One of the most famous citizens of Staufen was Johann Georg Faust, the legendary alchemist and magician that probably lived in Staufen about 500 years ago.

Today the visitor can read on the wall of the Lions Inn: "... and it is told that the most powerful of devils, Mephistopheles, the one he called brother-in-law when he was still alive, broke his neck, after the pact had expired after 24 years, thus handing over his poor soul to never ending perdition" (in: The 16th century Chronicles of Zimmer).

The History of Badenweiler began in Roman times. In 75AD vassals of the Roman Emperor Vespasian discovered the healing springs, built in the first baths and named the place Aquae Villae or "water town". The very well preserved ruins of the Roman Baths are on of the most interesting sights of the region. Warm Mediterranean air flows through the Belfort Gap. The Black Forest in the north and east shields the resort from cold winds and temperature fluctuations. Thanks to its situation at a height of 450m, Badenweiler offers splendid views over the Markgräferland and the Rhine Plain as far as the French Vosges.
