Bad Diezlings (also Bad Diezling , formerly Schützen Bad , 432  m above sea level ) was a therapeutic bath and inn (today only an inn) and is located in the Diezlings parcel of the Hörbranz municipality in Vorarlberg ( Austria ).

Name derivation

Diezling is said to derive from the name Dietrich and to designate the son of Dietrich.

history

On June 17, 1631, Georg Neser applied to the Bregenz Regional Office for permission to build a bathing hut and to distribute food and drinks to bathing visitors. He had previously had the spring water in Diezlings examined for the mineral content in Lindau and Isny with positive results. The bathroom was then sold several times, around 1691 the Bregenz master builder Hinteregger owned it, but sold it to Bernhard Kohlhaupt a short time later. In 1771 Caspar Schlachter sold it to his son Sebastian for 2200 guilders . In 1816, Franz Josef Walser built a new bathhouse at the current location and sold it to Martin Rast a few years later.

Bad Diezlings is also known because, according to his autobiography , the writer Norbert Jacques wrote his novel " Dr. Mabuse " here in the inn in 1920 in twenty days , as his house in the neighboring German town of Thumen was renovated and he therefore stayed in the inn.

From 1956, the consequences of polio in Bad Diezlings were treated by the doctor Wilhelm Püschel with the help of the medicinal mineral spring, massages and gymnastics methods. In 1963 a sanatorium for disc disease was set up. The bathing business was run until 1980.

The Kneipp facility of the municipality of Hörbranz is located a few meters from the inn.

Bathing and healing spring

The healing spring is a cold, alkaline earth iron carbonate source made from tertiary molasse rock . Similar sources can also be found in Vorarlberg at the Andelsbuch steel baths and in Bad Reuthe .

Diezano

The regional beverage brand "Diezano" was created by Johann Füssinger from Bad Diezlings, who added a lemon flavor (Diezano) and orange flavor (Diez orange) to his table water in 1927. Production and bottling has been carried out in Dornbirn since 1979 . In 1938, Bad Diezlings was acquired by the Fohrenburg brewery, along with the guest and agricultural business and the “Diezano” beverage brand .
