Your Place to Arrive

Located in a high valley in Oppenau, surrounded by hiking trails, clear streams, and the birdsong of the Black Forest, Bad Antogast has been offering space for retreat and renewal for 30 years.

The historic building, once a famous spa, still preserves its healing spring – a place that once attracted Tsar Alexander II and European royalty. Today, it is the European retreat center of the Art of Living, sustained by a dedicated community.
