Old Mineral Baths

Historic spa building on Krynica-Zdrój's promenade, tied to the town's mineral-water heyday

The Old Mineral Baths are part of the spa architecture that gives Krynica-Zdrój its old resort-town mood. The building sits near the promenade and pump-room world of mineral waters, sanatoriums, and well-dressed strolling that made the town a fashionable health retreat.

Do not expect a blockbuster sight on its own. It is best appreciated as one stop in a walk through the spa quarter, where the pleasure is in the sequence of historic bathhouses, timber villas, water pavilions, and mountain air. If you are tasting the waters, bring a cup or bottle and embrace the medicinal flavour.
