Bad Niedernau Roman spring
The Bad Niedernauer Römerquelle is a healing water spring from the health resort Bad Niedernau in a side valley of the Neckar near the town of Rottenburg am Neckar and is mentioned for the first time in 1471.
The spring was already known as a healing spring during Roman times . In the immediate vicinity of the source, numerous Roman coins as well as a well-preserved stone relief of Apollo or Grannus , the Gallo-Roman god of healing and spring, were found. The portrait can be viewed today in a spring house at the exit of the Wolfsschlucht. There is also the opportunity to fill bottles with the water from the spring.
The Bad Niedernau healing water is very digestible because of its carbon dioxide content and has a pleasantly refreshing taste. In addition, the Bad Niedernau Roman spring has a scientifically proven healing effect: it stimulates the functioning of the stomach and intestines, improves the calcium supply and has a supportive effect in the treatment of osteoporosis. Since the Römerquelle hardly contains any table salt , it is also suitable for a healthy and balanced diet. Today the Sprudelwerk Bad Niedernau belongs to the Brunnen Union St. Christophorus GmbH based in Göppingen. The medicinal water of the Römerquelle is still tapped in Bad Niedernau.
