Bad Radkersburg
Bad Radkersburg is a small thermal spa town on the Mur river, on the border with Slovenia in south-east Styria. The old town is a compact grid of painted houses and arcades, surrounded by old defences. Across the river lies the Slovenian town of Gornja Radgona.
It is a calm place, known for its thermal spa and for vineyards and cycling in the green hills around it. It suits a slow weekend.

História
Radkersburg was founded in the 13th century as a border fortress on the Mur. After World War I, the river became the border with the new Yugoslavia, and the southern part of the town became Gornja Radgona. Thermal water found in the 20th century led to the spa that now defines the town.
