The Römerbrunnen is located in Bad Vilbel, Hessen and was drilled by the Vilbeler carbonic acid works in the years 1929-1930. The fountain was initially named "Friedrich-Karl-Sprudel" after the landgrave Friedrich Karl von Hessen. The entire source plant, which is now owned by Hassia Mineralquellen, was completely renovated in 2007. A renovation followed in 2012. [1]

A borehole opened a mineral water at a depth of 287 meters, which gushes to light due to its high carbon dioxide content. With a total mineralization of almost 5,000 mg / l, the Bad Vilbeler Römerbrunnen is one of the most mineral-rich springs in all of Germany and, with an annual fill of 220,000 m³, is the most productive Bad Vilbeler spring deposit.

In 1955 the occurrence was recognized by the state as a “non-profit source” [2] and subsequently used for spa treatments in the Bad Vilbeler Kurhaus. Today the spring bears the name "Römerbrunnen" and is also available under this name as a medicinal water bottling.
