Thermalbad Therme Miriquidi is the thermal bathing establishment of the spa municipality of Thermalbad Wiesenbad in the Erzgebirgskreis of Saxony, Germany, a state-recognized Kurort designated as an 'Ort mit Heilquellenkurbetrieb' — a place with certified mineral spring spa operations — whose name Miriquidi references the ancient Latin designation of the Ore Mountains forest, the dark silva Miriquidi of medieval chronicles that covered the Erzgebirge highlands. The bicarbonated oligomineral carbonated mineral waters of Thermalbad Wiesenbad emerge in the Annaberg-Buchholz district of the Erzgebirge, a UNESCO World Heritage Region recognized for its silver mining heritage, Erzgebirge folk art traditions of wooden Christmas decorations and ore mining figurines, and the distinctive cultural identity of the Saxon mountain folk who inhabited this historically important border region between Saxony and Bohemia. The Therme Miriquidi draws on the Erzgebirge's mineral spring legacy to offer therapeutic carbonated mineral bathing in the ancient forested mountain landscape that the medieval chronicles called the Dark Forest, now recognized as one of Germany's most culturally distinctive and geologically productive highland regions.
