Its history begins with Emperor Franz I, who, after a treatment at the spa, selected Baden as a permanent location for the imperial family's summer stay, making the city a popular resort and summer holiday location for the aristocracy and bourgeoisie.
The building was constructed in place of the old Theresienbad spa in the resort park between 1884 and 1886 as a new spa in the style of the Renaissance Revival based on architects Eugen Faßbender and Maximilian Katscher's plans.
In the interwar period (1928) the last remnants of the Theresienbad spa were removed and a drinking hall was built according to the plans of Joseph Fischer.
The ceiling fresco "Hygieia" by Prof. Hans Zatzka created in 1886 is a cultural jewel. It is located in the magnificent festival hall of Congress Casino Baden. Hygieia is the Greek goddess of health and was considered the wife of Asclepius, the god of healing.
Water is a central element in the thermal resort of Baden. Artist Manfred Welte dedicated three fountains to him during refurbishment between 1992 and 1995: the fountain with illuminated waterspouts on the terrace, the "wellspring" in the domed hall of the restaurant, a gem consisting of 932 pieces of glass with an immersible granite ball, and the granite fountain in the form of the casino logo with the rotating ball in front of the building.
Casino Baden was opened in the resort on 12 April 1934 as Austria's first year-round casino.
The casino was closed during the Second World War. Russian headquarters were located in it after the war, which is why casino operations only resumed in mid-1955. The casino relocated to the congress centre in 1968.
In 1977, Casino Baden was refurbished several times. During the major refurbishment from 1992 to 1995 the casino relocated to the Baden event hall. In March 1995 Casino Baden was opened as the largest casino in Europe including the congress and event centres. The gaming hall and restaurant areas were relaunched in 2007.
