Inselsberg Therme in Bad Tabarz in the Thuringian Forest sits at the foot of the Großer Inselsberg (916 m), one of the highest points of the Thüringer Wald range and a traditional viewpoint from which, on clear days, both the Harz mountains to the north and the Alpine foothills to the south are visible. The ferruginous mineral waters, which emerge cold from the iron-rich Thuringian granite and are warmed for therapeutic use, are particularly valued for anaemia, fatigue and circulatory conditions. The Thuringian Forest, with its dense spruce forests, traditional glass-blowing villages, Rennsteig ridge trail and the cultural legacy of Bach, Liszt and Goethe in the nearby towns of Eisenach and Weimar, creates one of central Germany's richest landscapes for a thermal stay combining wellness with cultural exploration. The proximity of the Wartburg Castle — where Martin Luther translated the New Testament — gives the region a world-historical significance.

Insider tip — Drink the iron-rich water at the source — recommended for iron deficiencies, but beware of the pronounced metallic taste.
