Healing spa & Kneipp health resort

A healing spa with a fresh sea breeze

As early as 1869, Bad Nauheim acquired the additional title of "Bad" in recognition of its status as a health and spa town, rising over the following decades to become a renowned healing spa for cardiovascular disorders.

The healing effect of Bad Nauheim's brine (salt-rich spring water), with its high content of natural carbon dioxide, trace elements and iron, is scientifically proven. Rising from a depth of 200 metres, the brine bursts impressively into the daylight in the Sprudelhof (fountain courtyard) in steaming and foaming fountains. Bad Nauheim brine can be used as a drinking cure, a bathing cure or for inhalation. The salty air is beneficial for the bronchial tubes, respiratory passages and skin. When walking along our open-air inhalation facilities - our blackthorn graduation towers - it feels like a holiday by the sea.

Kneipp health resort in the Taunus

With its Kneipp facilities, the spa town is one of the best-known healing spas in Hesse. Bad Nauheim has held the title of "Kneipp health resort" since 2011 and offers an outstanding service.

Kneipp's holistic teaching aims at a balanced lifestyle in harmony with fellow human beings and nature. We support this philosophy with our public facilities: There are various water-treading areas, arm bath facilities and even a Kneipp basin especially for children - because experience has shown that even the youngsters enjoy Kneipping. One of the most beautiful Kneipp facilities in the Taunus is the Health Garden at Gradierbau (graduation tower) II: wade through the spacious Kneipp basin or plunge your arms into the stone arm bath. A sensory experience is the herb garden, where various medicinal plants grow. You can get physically active at the exercise points and on the fitness trail.

If you are interested in a Kneipp holiday or a Kneipp cure, local spa doctors, clinics and the Kneipp association offer advanced and individually tailored programmes and treatments.
