Opened 2010, built to modernize Bad Orb's traditional brine-bath economy
✓ Verified on 2026-07-29
Toskana Therme opened in 2010 in Bad Orb, a Hessian town whose spa economy has historically run on three documented brine springs: the Philippsquelle, Ludwigsquelle, and Martinusquelle. The highest-yield of these, the Martinusquelle, discharges about 420 m³/hour of 14°C water at 1.7% salinity (pH 6.06), with sodium, chloride, calcium and sulfate as key components. The therme was built to modernize the town's traditional salt-bath offerings for contemporary standards.
