Best thermal water

Healing and beneficial

Best thermal water

for your well-being
Thermal water differs from normal spring water due to its ingredients, which are absorbed through the skin. Baden-Baden's thermal water contains over 3,000 dissolved minerals - making it one of the most mineral-rich thermal waters in Baden-Württemberg! The balanced mineralization regenerates, stimulates and activates the whole body. Whether cardiovascular complaints, metabolic disorders or diseases of the musculoskeletal system: the healing power of our springs promotes well-being and recovery. In addition, the thermal water has a relaxing effect on the muscles, joints and skin - thanks to its warmth and ingredients - and helps to reduce stress.

Origin of the

Thermal water

Mercury, Baden-Baden's local mountain, is an extinct volcano. There is still volcanic activity in the deeper layers of soil. The thermal water is forced upwards through various layers of soil by artesian pressure. At the foot of the Florentinerberg there are twelve different individual springs containing sodium chloride, through which the thermal water reaches the surface from a depth of 2,000 meters at a temperature of up to 68.8°C.

The springs pour out around 800,000 liters a day - that's nine liters a second. The twelve springs were combined into three tunnels at the end of the 19th century: Friedrichsstollen, Kirchenstollen and Neuer Stollen. The Friedrichsstollen is the main gallery - it pumps around 50 percent of the total volume of water that feeds the thermal water basins of the Caracalla Spa and the Friedrichsbad.

Healing water analysis

Thermal water as rich in minerals as that found in Baden-Baden is rare. Baden-Baden's thermal water is also known as fluoride-containing sodium chloride thermal water. These two predominant components give the water its mildly salty taste.
