Mineral springs
Around 1700, the doctor Samuel Caspar discovered small spring pots of bubbling mineral acid in the valley floor of the Eyach. In 1733 the Prince's Spring, named after Prince Josef Friedrich von Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen , was exposed . In the same year he had the princely building built in Bad Imnau. At that time only he and his court were able to enjoy the bathing and drinking cures. Soon afterwards, the mineral water was filled into clay jugs and brought to the customers in horse-drawn vehicles. The distribution area gradually extended to Augsburg , Stuttgart and Zurich . In 1804 the general spa business was started under the well doctor Franz Xaver Mezler .
In 1905, the Pope family caught the Apollo spring in Imnau, which was sold to Carl Haegele, a councilor of commerce , the following year . In 1923, the Apollo source came into the possession of Mineralbrunnen Überkingen-Teinach-Ditzenbach AG , which sold it to Imnauer Mineralquellen in 2009.
