History

The oldest traces of settlement in the area of the municipality date back to the

mint, too. However, it lost its importance after Wiener Neustadt, founded at the end of the 12th century, became the site of the mint.[4]

Exploitation of the mineral springs of Fischau took a rise in 1872, when the spa resort (Kristalltherme) was opened. It was rebuilt and expanded to its current state in 1900. The prefix "Bad" (spa town) has been added to the name in 1929.[4] The current market town was formed in 1969 by merging the municipalities of Brunn an der Schneebergbahn and Bad-Fischau.
