The list of medicinal springs in Bad Wildungen includes all medicinal springs in Bad Wildungen in the Waldeck-Frankenberg district in Hesse .

history

The village "villa vildungen" appeared as early as around 800 in an inventory of the Hersfeld monastery . The Wildunger Stadtbrunnen, today's Georg-Viktor-Quelle, is mentioned in a deed of donation to the Johanniter-Hospital. Four wells were already known when the Wildunger Fountain Writing appeared in 1580. The medicinal water business flourished from the middle of the 18th century , but after the Napoleonic War the business subsided again.

The Wildunger Mineralquellen-Aktiengesellschaft was founded in 1855. At that time eight medicinal springs were known, but other springs such as the park spring were also used. In 1869 the Königsquelle was redesigned. A spa park was laid out around the Königsquelle. Over time, hotels and spa hospitals were built. Among other things, the Fürstenhof was built in 1902 . The state "Bad Wildunger Heilquellen AG - Königsquelle" acquired in 1907 from Dr. Carl Rörig his property with the Königsquelle and the buildings located on it (e.g. spring enclosure and sanatorium).

After the First World War , the number of cures dropped sharply, as urological diseases could also be treated in normal hospitals. There was also heavy building activity: 18 bunkers were built in the city; Bad Wildungen was to become the headquarters of the Air Force.

After the Second World War , the spa business increased again. Cures were increasingly used for rehabilitation.

geology

Bad Wildungen is located in the eastern part of the Kellerwald , part of the Rhenish Slate Mountains . The structure of the basement forest in the Bad Wildungen area is complex and characterized by tectonic scales . Since the healing water flows through different stones in the underground, the composition of the healing water is different.
