The Kochbrunnen fountain at Kranzplatz is not only Wiesbaden's landmark, but also a popular spot for health-conscious people. It is Wiesbaden's most famous thermal spring. Thermal water bubbles from the abundant spring, which is said to have a whole host of health benefits.

The Kochbrunnen fountain is one of Wiesbaden's so-called primary springs. Only a small portion of the water feeds the drinking fountain in the Kochbrunnen pavilion and the Kochbrunnenspringer.

The majority of the thermal water is piped to the Kaiser-Friedrich-Therme spa, where it undergoes pre-treatment for use in the thermal baths. The Kaiser-Friedrich-Therme and the Aukammtal thermal baths are recognized spas thanks to their thermal water.

The Kochbrunnen (Kochbrunnen) in Wiesbaden is the city's most famous and hottest thermal spring.

This sodium chloride thermal spring was the center of the Wiesbaden drinking cure in the 19th century. Its name refers to its water temperature of over 66°C.

The spring at Kochbrunnenplatz was first mentioned in 1366 as Bryeborn and in 1536 as Syedenborn, but appears to have been known as early as Roman times.

The Kochbrunnen is an artesian spring and rises from a depth of 2,000 meters.

Today, it is accessed by a 43-meter-deep borehole.

The yield is approximately 360 liters per minute.

The Kochbrunnen water has a faint smell of hydrogen sulfide and a strong salty taste.

It is clear, but becomes cloudy and yellowish after 24 hours of exposure to air. The high carbon dioxide content initially keeps the hardness in solution, but after the water is decompressed, it precipitates as calcium carbonate.

The Kochbrunnen fountain is one of Wiesbaden's primary springs.

Only a small portion of the water feeds the drinking fountain in the Kochbrunnen Pavilion and the Kochbrunnenspringer.

The majority is piped to the treatment plant in the Kaiser-Friedrich-Bad.

From there, it flows into the city's extensive thermal water network.
