30 The eldest of her children, Franz Joseph, who later became Emperor of Austria, got engaged to sixteenyear-old Duchess Elisabeth in Bavaria (called “Sissi”), in 1853, using as location for the engagement ceremony a prestigious building in Ischl that today houses the Bad Ischl Town Museum. As a wedding gift for her first-born son, Archduchess Sophie of Bavaria had the Kaiservilla built, which continued to serve as the summer residence for the imperial family for a total of 66 years to come. In 1914 this place was chosen for the signing of the manifesto “To my peoples”, the declaration that was to mark the unleashing of World War I. Among the famous persons who came to live and work in this town, there were Franz Lehár, the composer and name giver of the continentally acclaimed Lehár Festival in Bad Ischl, Johann Nestroy, singer, actor and playwright, who also worked here at his own mansion, and composer Anton Bruckner. Climate The town’s geographical position on 468 meters above sea level provides for healthy subalpine climate conditions without fog, which makes Bad Ischl an ideal holiday resort that spreads on a total area of 163 square kilometres of which 72 % are forested. About 200 years ago, the air of this region was in fact even commercially captured in glass vessels and exported to numerous houses of European aristocrats where it was used as “air improver”. Tourism What used to be agreeable for the royal family of the Habsburgs may only be considered a proven recipe for the visitors still coming to the imperial town to this today to spend a pleasant vacation time: Clean mountain air, mild bracing climate on 468 meters above sea level, the Bad Ischl Thermal Spa resort with its wide range of brine (bath) applications, as well as the state-of-the-art infrastructure of a modern town that offers an abundance of cultural highlights and attracts visitors from all over the region. The city itself is a perfect starting point for trips to fascinating tourist attractions nearby: The World Cultural Heritage site of Hallstatt, the town of St. Wolfgang on the waterfront of the lake of the same name, the Handwerkshaus (guildhall) in Bad Goisern, and the town of Gmunden, world-famous for its long history in the manufacture of precious chinaware and porcelain – to mention only some of the attractions that are only a few minutes by car from Bad Ischl. And similarly worthwhile: The Austrian Romantic Road that stretches from Salzburg in the West to Vienna in the East of Austria and offers 18 fascinating places to stop by, as well the group of 15 towns known as “Little Historical Towns”.
