Bad Gastein is an important holiday center of southern Austria, in the province of Salzburg, 80 km to south of the chief town. Situated at 1083 masl. in the Gasteiner Tal, a narrow gorge of the High Taurus acrossed from the Ache river, that here develops two cascades of 63 and 85 m, it's a SPA (radioactive waters) and winter sports town. It's the most important thermal locality of Austria, one of most famous of Europe, with a rich history: here came to make thermal cures the Hasburg nobility. The town was also theatre of some important conferences, in 1865 it was center of the “The Gasteiner Convention” which sealed the peace between Denmark, Prussia and Austria; in 1878 in Bad Gastein the “Dreibund (Triple Union)” was sealed between Austria, Germany and Italy.
