The former Bad Sulz (also called Bad Hohensulz ) is located in the area of ​​today's Peißenberg and was once a healing spring with a spa.

history

The spring was owned by the Augustinian canons in Polling until the secularization of 1803 . As a result, there were several changes of ownership until the engineer Friedrich Schwarz took over the facility in 1886.

In 1875 a works railway from Unterpeißenberg to the Peißenberg mine was put into operation, the terminus of which was in Sulz , directly south of Bad Sulz. In 1879 the Royal Bavarian State Railways started passenger traffic on the previous works line and in 1880 renamed Sulz station to Peißenberg. The rail connection led to an upswing for Bad Sulz and to increasing numbers of guests at the Bad Hohensulz spa hotel . In the summer of 1882 alone, 350 spa guests came to Bad Sulz.

On October 22, 1889, Friedrich Schwarz received a planning license for a cog railway up to the Hohen Peißenberg , and a detailed article about this appeared in the "Münchner Stadt-Zeitung" No. 58 of 1890. However, the realization did not get beyond the planning stage.

The spring gradually dried up during the 1930s and 1940s, probably due to mining in Peißenberg . In 1935 the spa business was closed due to a lack of profitability. Today this part of Peißenberg is only called Sulz . The spa hotel belonged to the Peißenberg brewery for a long time and has since been demolished.

Well-known spa guests

There were various nobles there, for example from the House of Wittelsbach . Once a Russian tsarina was there. The later Empress Elisabeth of Austria-Hungary (Sisi), who came from the relatively nearby town of Possenhofen , was also there. The well-known Biedermeier painter Carl Spitzweg made the decision to become a painter there during a spa stay in 1833.
