    Hiking

    The historic Elisabeth spring was discovered in 1839 and used as an iron-rich natron acidulous spring for drinking and bathing cures. The healing water from the spring is now channeled into the Rotherma thermal bath.

    Hiking

    In 1839, experts came across this mineral spring during construction work on behalf of the margrave. The source then got its name in honor of the margrave's wife. Today the healing water is diverted to the anteroom of the Rotherma.

    Hiking

    At this point / I would like to quickly say something about the source:
    Namely, the incomparable humorist Heinz Erhardt (1909 – 1979), who was known to a wide audience for his wit and "Noch'n Gedicht", to quote him with a short quatrain:
    "Es ist gewiss viel Schönes dran,
    am Element, dem nassen.
    Weil man das Wasser trinken kann.
    Man kann's aber - auch lassen."
    (H.Erhardt)
