This cold, carbonaceous, ferruginous mineral spring is first mentioned in 1438 as "Barisair". Pools were added to the spring very early on.

The Barisart spring is a spring in the Spa region. It is a pouhon, a ferruginous and carbon-gas source typical of the Haute-Ardenne. Its waters come from the massif of the Malchamps fagne. The water flows to become the ru du barisart; tributary of the Wayai. (Wikipedia)

The Barisart source (French: Source de Barisart) is a source in the Belgian municipality of Spa. The source is located south of Spa in the forest on the road Rue de Barisart. The water of the source comes from the Veen van Malchamps.
The water of the Barisart source is extracted in a field higher up (50° 28′ 26″ N, 5° 51′ 56″ E) by Spa Monopole and is sold under the name "Spa Barisart". The water of the Barisart source is carbonated and is of a similar type to that of the Marie-Henriette source.
Behind the source runs the Géronstère stream with water from, among others, the Géronstère source. The water of the Barisart source joins this stream and flows down the slope towards the city of Spa.
About one kilometre to the southeast lies the Géronstère spring and about 900 metres to the southeast lies the Pouhon Pia spring.
