CZ, Jeseník – Priessnitz Medical Baths – VIDEO

Published: 25.6.2019
On the outskirts of the town of Jeseník you can visit another of the unique places of our beautiful country. In 1822 Vincenz Priessnitz founded the world's first hydrotherapy institute. To this day, there is a popular spa, surrounded by beautiful mountain nature.

The founder of the spa probably came to the healing effects of water by chance. Among other things, thanks to hydrotherapy, it has significantly helped heal its several broken ribs. The water is mainly used for external application, whether it is a hot and cold shower, bubble bath, or underwater massage. Everything is complemented by other classic spa treatments and walks in fresh mountain air are equally important for patients.

All together helps mainly correct blood circulation in all parts of the body. In the Priessnitz Spa, the diseases of the circulatory system and heart disease are treated. There are also patients with respiratory problems such as asthma, musculoskeletal disorders and skin diseases.

Jesenik Baths, as they are also called, but we recommend visiting it just as well. From here you can go on a number of trips to the heart of the beautiful Rychleby Mountains. In the spa area you will also find excellent activities for children, whether it be a herb trail, labyrinth or water reservoirs.

Also worth seeing are the local sights, besides the spa buildings themselves, such as the Sunny Side building directly behind the Priessnitz Sanatorium. There are several small stone shapes and large stone objects on it, the most famous being the Sun Gate.

Several nature trails await you, where you can learn more not only about the history of the spa, but also about individual treatments. At the same time, you can discover individual springs, memorials, observation spots or memorable rocks, which are around the spa around eighty. You can also find reminders of visits by famous personalities - Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol or Franz Liszt.

Finish your trip at one of the local cozy restaurants or cafés, perhaps Vinck's Coffee offers the best coffee and great homemade cakes.
