Sprudelhof Bad Nauheim

The Sprudelhof in Bad Nauheim is the largest closed Art Nouveau ensemble in Europe. The former spa complex is unique: it combines architecture with free and applied art as well as garden and square design. It is definitely worth taking a break here.Bad Naunheim is not only known for its spa complex. Elvis Presley lived in the small Hessian town from 1959 to 1960.

One of the largest Art Nouveau facilities in all of Germany. The big sparkling water forms the central element of this facility. All around are the bathing houses, which also house the very imposing Fürstenbad.
The complex was built shortly after the turn of the century around 1905.
The large sparkling water that brings the saline healing water to light came to light on the night of December 21st to 22nd, 1846, which is also known as the "Christmas miracle of Bad Nauheim".

At the beginning of the 20th century, important representatives of the Art Nouveau artists' colony founded on Darmstadt's Mathildenhöhe dedicated themselves to the construction of new bathing facilities in Bad Nauheim. Architect Wilhelm Jost was responsible for the overall planning of the Sprudelhof. Many other well-known artists were involved in the artistic design - among them Jakob Julius Scharvogel, Wilhelm Kleukens, Albin Müller and Heinrich Jobst.
