Vojtech I is a bicarbonated mineral spring in Slovakia bearing the Slovak form of the name Adalbert — Vojtech — in honour of Saint Adalbert of Prague, the patron saint of Bohemia, Poland, and Hungary whose missionary work across Central Europe makes his name a natural choice for a mineral spring in this historically Catholic region. The naturally bicarbonated spring water carries the gentle, refreshing mineral character typical of Slovakia's carbonated mineral sources, valued for drinking cures and mild therapeutic applications. The spring is the first of a named series, suggesting a field of multiple mineral outlets catalogued and named within the Slovak mineral water tradition.
Insider tip — Vojtech I is a thermal borehole in the Ruzomberok-Revuca corridor of central Slovakia, where bicarbonate groundwater surfaces at 38°C through Mesozoic carbonate formations. The well is part of a series of exploratory boreholes drilled in the communist era to harness geothermal resources for local spa development. Bicarbonate-dominated mineral water from this area has a long history of use in the region's balneological tradition. The Velka Fatra mountain range looming to the east gives the site a distinctly Alpine atmosphere.
