Aarau Switzerland - Birthplace of Frey Chocolate & The Habsburg Empire | 90+ Countries With 3 Kids
Aarau, the capital of the Canton of Aargau, is located on the River Aare to which the town and canton owe their name.
Aarau is located by the southern foot of the Jura foothills in the centre of the big city triangle of Zurich, Basel and Lucerne. The central location was recognised early on which is why Aarau for a brief few months in 1798 was Switzerland's first capital and home to Switzerland's first Houses of Parliament.
The charming old town boasts the most beautiful eaves, the so-called «Dachhimmel» which predominantly date from the 16th century when the town underwent considerable extension, are a special feature of the old town of Aarau. It's for this reason that Aarau is regarded as the town of beautiful gables.
Aarau continues to display an appreciation of art: the Aargau Art Museum featuring an extension designed by the famous architects Herzog & de Meuron offers architecture and art exhibitions setting high standards. The «Naturama», Aargau nature museum, is not your run-of-the-mill museum: animals, plants, exciting video films highlight the interaction and areas of conflict between nature and man in Aargau.
The Roggenhausen Wildlife Park has wild animals in their natural habitat as well as a Nature Trail. Cycling and walking trails alongside the River Aare and the Jura slopes provide the perfect opportunity for some pleasant physical exercise. But to see the people of Aargau really enjoying themselves you need to come to one of the local and historic traditional events, such as the «Maienzug» in July, the «Bachfischet» or «Rüeblimärt».
The Canton of Aargau boasts a great many castles, including some of Switzerland's most impressive such as the Lenzburg, the Hallwyl Water Castle and the Habsburg Castle - main residence of the famous dynasty from the the 10th century onwards. And Brugg, Baden and Zurich are a very short journey away. The Vindonissa Museum offers an opportunity to discover traces of the Romans and Windish is home to the biggest and best-preserved amphitheatre in Switzerland. And there are also a lot of historic towns, such as Bremgarten, Zofingen and others, to visit in the Canton of Aargau.

Aarau, Switzerland, where Albert Einstein started his career
Founded about 1240 by the Counts of Kyburg, picturesque Aarau, Switzerland, with a population of around 16,000, lies on the River Aare at the foot of the southern slopes of the Jura mountains. The town’s central location, within easy travelling distance of Basel, Bern, Lucerne and Zurich makes it an ideal meeting point and it has a variety of thriving industries. It is also known as the town of beautiful gables thanks to its colourful baroque-style buildings with painted gable roofs. Aarau is also a town of outdoor activity and culture see below), as well as hosting several traditional festivals such as the Maienzug (May Day Procession) and Rueblimärt (Carrot Festival).
The great physicist Einstein lived in Switzerland between 1895 and 1919, and his time in Aarau, though short (1895-6), is well recorded in the town. The house Einstein lived in for that year has a plaque identifying it, and there is a square named after him; both are shown in the film. He attended the Kantonschule in Aarau (also featured in the movie) because he wanted to be a teacher of Mathematics, and he had surprisingly failed the exam to get on the course at the Polytechnikum in Zürich. After a year at the Kantonsschule in Aarau he was successful and returned to Zürich for his teacher training.
Explore the old town (Altstadt). Go to the Aargauer Kunsthaus art museum, the Naturama museum of natural history, or learn about the town’s history at the Schlössli Museum.
Visit the Roggenhausen Wildlife Park to see animals in their natural habitat, and go on a Nature Trail.
Walk or cycle along the River Aare on trails provided for the purpose.
Swim and play at Freibad Schachen water park.
Visit the Vindonissa Museum to learn about the Romans.
Visit one or more of the castles in the area, such as Lenzburg Castle, Hallwyl Water Castle, and Habsburg Castle.
Seek out the house where Albert Einstein lived and the school he attended for a year, and have a coffee in Einsteinplatz.
Take the family to the bizarre Käpten Jo’s Aafähre, which is in the shape of a boat and is so much more than a restaurant!
For nightlife, go to the Jugendkulturhaus Flosserplatz.
Finding the right accommodation actually in Aarau town is not easy. If you want a four-star hotel right in Aarau, about the only option is the Best Western Plus Hotel Storchen on Oltnerstrasse, but if you are willing to travel a better idea might be to stay at Seerose Resort and Spa, 11 miles (18km) out of town. In the 3-star category, the Sorell Hotel Aarauerhof and the Sorrell Hotel Argovia are both within walking distance from the town centre. The nearest hostels are 23 miles (37km) away in Zurich, where you find Langstars Backpacker Hostel on Aussersihl, or 8 miles (12km) away at Zofingen at the Youth Hostel Zofingen.
Albert Einstein in Aarau, Switzerland
While born in Ulm and raised in Munich, Albert Einstein moved to Aarau, Switzerland in 1895 under the advisement of the principle of the Polytechnic to attend the Argovian Kanton School. His legacy is honored in many ways in this region of Switzerland today. In this video, you will get a feel for Aarau beginning with the central railway station (Bahnhofplatz). You can also see the Kanton school, which has now been named the Albert Einstein Haus. Inside you will see a sculpture of him to honor his work. From there, the video takes you to Laurenzvorstadt 119, the house where Einstein lived as a guest with the Winteler family. While living there he fell in love with the daughter, Maria. Other landmarks paying homage to this famous physicist are Einsteinplatz with the restaurant Einstein, Einstein sculpture in the pedestrian subway between post office and railway station, and Albert-Einstein-Weg along the river Aare all of which you will see in this video.

BRENNPUNKT AARGAU. Fünfzig Jahre, drei Bewegungen, dreimal Protest
ZEITGESCHICHTE AARGAU geht in ihrem Film drei Jugendbewegungen nach, die den Aargau in den letzten fünf Jahrzehnten berührten. Den Anfang macht der Aufbruch von 1968, der sich nachhaltig auf Politik und Gesellschaft auswirkte. Mit ihren langen Haaren, bunten Kleidern, wuchernden Bärten und selbstgestrickten Pullovern lehnten die «68er» die geltenden Konventionen ab und forderten damit die bürgerliche Gesellschaft heraus. In Kommunen auf dem Land, oft in alten Bauernhäusern, widmeten sie sich ihren Lebensexperimenten.
Es folgten die Jugendunruhen von 1980, die aus Zürich und Basel die Aargauer Kleinstädte erreichten, wo junge Menschen leerstehende Wohnhäuser und Gewerbebauten für ihre kulturellen und sozialen Freiräume besetzten und Autonome Jugendzentren betrieben. Der schrille, aggressive Musikstil Punk stellte Politik und Gesellschaft gegen Ende des Ost-West-Konfliktes in Frage. Mit dem Slogan «No Future!» zeigten die «80er» auf, dass es in den gewohnten Bahnen nicht weitergehen kann.
In jüngster Zeit zeigt die Jugend wieder Interesse an politischen Themen. Die Sorge um die Umwelt und der Klimawandel bringen weltweit Tausende auf die Strasse, auch in Aarau und Baden. Ob sich die «Klimajugend» jedoch zu einer neuen sozialen Bewegung formieren kann, muss sich noch weisen, so die Einschätzung von Christina Späti, die an der Universität Fribourg die Zeitgeschichte erforscht und lehrt. Sie tritt im Film als Expertin auf.

More information about the video content bellow:
1. Located between Zürich, Basel and Bern, the canton of Aargau is in the heart of Switzerland's so-called flatlands. And despite many travelers having never heard of it, the canton is also one of the most densely populated. Canton Aargau has over 670'000 inhabitants, a quarter of which are citizens of other countries. The canton covers 1404 km^2.
2. Canton Aargau was founded in the year 1803. The areas that the French Emperor Napoléon Bonaparte combined to form Aargau had great political, confessional, and economic differences. This is still true to some extent today. In the 17th century, Jews were banished from Switzerland. The County was the only federal condominium in the 17th century where Jews were tolerated. In 1774, they were restricted to just two towns, Endingen and Lengnau.
3. For those of you not able to plan a trip to Switzerland for the start of November or a day off midweek, Aarau is worth a visit more than once a year. The small town is a pleasant surprise - the type you find in places that are often forgotten. Though the city has been the site of civilization since the Bronze Age, the town known today as Aarau was founded by the Kyburger count Hartmann IV around 1240.
4. Every first Wednesday of November, the folks of Aarau celebrate the wonderful root vegetable loved by rabbits, horses and humans alike - the carrot. There is some evidence that the Aargauers were the first to cultivate carrots and other root vegetables in large numbers. The traditional Rüeblimärt (Carrot Market) attracts some 35’000 visitors midweek to a town with a population of just 21’000. That alone is a feat and worth the journey to buy and try purple, yellow, red and the classic orange carrot.
5. The canton of Aargau is one of the least mountainous Swiss cantons, forming part of a great table-land, to the north of the Alps. Around 1,065 kilometers to hike and 1,000 to cycle lure guests to both demanding as well as more leisurely hikes – and cycling tours through lush meadows, shady forests and stunningly beautiful floodplains.
6. Nestled between the rivers Aare and Rhine, are the rolling hills of the Aargau Jura. A multifaceted stepped landscape of valleys, Jurassic plateau and mountains is the largest vacation region between Basel and Zürich. The Aargau Jura Park located to the north of Aarau harbors a large number of natural treasures: sparse pine forests, orchid slopes, rocky steppes, dry meadows and terraced vineyards.
7. In the second half of the 13th century, the territory became divided between the territories claimed by the imperial cities of Berne, Lucerne and Solothurn and the Swiss canton of Unterwalden. The remaining portion, largely corresponding to the modern canton of Aargau, remained under the control of the Habsburgs until the conquest of Aargau by the Old Swiss Confederacy in 1415. Habsburg Castle itself, the original seat of the House of Habsburg, was taken by Berne in April 1415.
