Kurhessisches Staatsbad Naumburg is a historic state thermal spa in Naumburg in the former Hessian state of Germany, where iron-rich (ferruginous), sodium, and chloride-bearing mineral spring waters have been used since the establishment of the official spa in the early modern period. The ferruginous character of the Naumburg springs was highly prized in nineteenth-century German spa culture, reflecting the Iron Springs tradition of central German thermalism. Today Kurhessisches Staatsbad Naumburg continues this tradition as a recognized thermal resort, offering immersion in the naturally iron-enriched mineral waters of the Hessian highlands in a historic spa setting that reflects Germany's long tradition of state investment in natural mineral water as a public resource.

Insider tip — The Kurhessisches Staatsbad Naumburg draws from saline iron-rich springs in the wooded hills of northern Hesse, a state-run spa establishment with roots in the 18th-century German Kurwesen tradition of wellness bathing. The compact spa town preserves an unhurried atmosphere characteristic of smaller German Heilbäder that have escaped mass tourism. The surrounding Reinhardswald forest makes for excellent post-bath walking.
