history

Spa and sports hotel Obladis, around 1960

The name Obladis simply means "Ober-Ladis".

According to an old tradition, the shepherd Nikolaus Schederle discovered the Sauerbrunn spring ( mineral spring with natural carbon dioxide content) in 1212 , which is why it was called the Niggl fountain ( Niggl zu Nikolaus). The people used this healing spring for all diseases. Emperor Max had it examined and his doctor called it "aines der allerhailsamisten von Gantz Germany". Later investigations also came to the conclusion that this Sauerbrunn is "among all the mildest, loveliest, most witty and strongest". The place has been a medicinal bath since the late Middle Ages . As the source was on princely land, it was directly subordinate to the Innsbruck Court Chamber . Because the sulfur springs enable spa treatments, tourism developed very early in Ladis-Obladis. Princes, emperors and thousands of guests used it for drinking cures . From the early modern era, the water was also bottled and placed in sealed bottles (documented, for example, for the sovereigns Ferdinand II , Claudia , Leopold V ).

Originally “rising meters high”, the spring has probably poured only centimeters high since the Inntal earthquake on the night of July 17, 1670.

At the end of the 18th century, the visit had almost come to a standstill. In 1833 the spring was auctioned and - subject to government regulation - a large spa hotel was built. This was run by the Sauerbrunnen Society Obladis . From this time on, the spa and medicinal water business flourished again. Because there was no good road to Obladis, a material ropeway from Prutz ( 866  m ) was built around the turn of the century to transport mineral water .

In 1972 the hotel burned down and was rebuilt.

Economy and Infrastructure

Today there is a boarding house with a café. The medicinal water is still bottled today (Tiroler Sauerbrunn) . It is a state-approved medicinal and mineral water . Both companies are now run as a family business (the Kirschner family).

Free water extraction at the public well is possible. The fountain version is equipped with several historical memorial plaques. A marble fountain column stood on the promenade, which was donated by Archduke Ferdinand in 1576 after a drinking cure.
