Tips
Gelnhausen was a spa town for a short time.
As far as I know, a source was found during construction work on the Frankfurt - Fulda railway line in the 1920s. But it wasn't profitable because Bad Orb and Bad Soden already existed.translated by

Just outside of Gelnhausen to the east there is still an old “brine pool”.
