Lądek-Zdrój Silesia

Lądek-Zdrój, in the Kłodzko Land of Lower Silesia near the Czech border, is one of Poland's oldest and most historically significant spa towns, where bicarbonate radioactive thermal springs — among the warmest naturally occurring thermal waters in Poland, reaching 44°C — have been enjoyed for relaxation since at least the 14th century, with formal spa facilities established under Habsburg rule in the 18th century. The naturally warm bicarbonate waters are appreciated for their soothing and relaxing qualities in a spa environment whose remarkable 18th-century bathhouse architecture — including the Wojciech and Jerzy mineral pavilions — evokes the grandeur of Central European spa culture. The Kłodzko Land's extraordinary landscape of deep river gorges, sandstone rock formations, and the Czech-Polish Sudeten mountain ridge makes this one of Central Europe's most historically evocative and scenically beautiful thermal spa destinations.
