Baden is a rural locality in the local government area of Southern Midlands in the Central region of Tasmania. It is located about south-east of the town of Oatlands. The 2016 census determined a population of 36 for the state suburb of Baden.[1]
Baden was gazetted as a locality in 1968. The locality was named for Lord Baden Powell, in honour of three local men who served under him in the Boer War.[2]
