Name

The springs at Baden-Baden were known to the Romans as Шаблон:Lang ("The Waters")[2] and Шаблон:Lang ("Aurelia-of-the-Waters") after M. Aurelius Severus Alexander Augustus.Шаблон:Sfnp

In modern German, Шаблон:Lang is a noun meaning "bathing"[3] but Baden, the original name of the town, derives from an earlier plural form of Шаблон:Lang ("bath").[4] (Modern German uses the plural form Шаблон:Lang.)[5] As with the English placename "Bath", other Badens are at hot springs throughout Central Europe. The current doubled name arose to distinguish it from the others,[4] particularly Baden near Vienna in Austria and Baden near Zürich in Switzerland. The original Margraviate of Baden (1112-1535) split into several territories, including Baden-Baden and Baden-Durlach. The name "Baden-Baden" distinguished the Margraviate of Baden-Baden (1535–1771), from the Margraviate of Baden-Durlach. "Baden-Baden" thus means the town of Baden in the territory of Baden, whereas the name of the Margraviate of Baden-Baden meant "the Margraviate of Baden with its princely seat at Baden". Baden-Baden formally got its current name in 1931.[6]
