Ceremonial saunas in Vienna, Austria
WeBorn - The Social Recovery Club
A guided sauna and ice bath club near Wien Mitte, built around 60-minute classes rather than open bathing.

A single 60-minute sauna and ice bath class costs 35 euro, a 20-minute ice bath 15 euro, and the ice bath takes up to four people at a time. Swimwear is required.
Therme Wien
Vienna's thermal bath at Oberlaa, whose Saunalandschaft alone covers 3.000 m2 over two levels with a mixed area and separate women's and men's floors. The cabins range from a 90 degree Finnish sauna and a 65 degree bio sauna to a steam bath, tepidarium and laconium, with a fireplace room, a sauna garden and regular Aufguss ceremonies, and 18 degree plunge pools for cooling. The therme opens daily 9 am to 10 pm; sauna is a 15 euro surcharge on the day ticket. Swimwear is not allowed in the sauna.
Amalienbad
The 1920s art deco municipal bath on Reumannplatz, a Favoriten landmark of tiled facades and mosaics, keeps a full sauna floor behind its indoor pool: Finnish sauna, bio sauna, steam bath, whirlpool, warm and cold pools, an infrared cabin in the women's section and guided Aufguss ceremonies. Sauna hours run Tuesday to Sunday, part of the week women-only or gender-separated, the rest mixed; adult admission is 8,10 euro.
