Wysowa-Zdrój, Spa village in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland
Wysowa-Zdrój is a spa village in southeastern Poland situated in a valley with several mineral springs surrounded by green hills. The water from these springs is used in local bathing facilities and treatment centers for therapeutic purposes.
The village developed in the 18th century around natural mineral springs that enabled its growth as a spa settlement. A significant moment was the construction of a Western Lemko church in 1779, which remains an important landmark.
The village preserves traditional Lemko culture through its architecture and the daily practices of residents. This regional identity shapes how the houses look and how people live together here.
The mineral springs and treatment facilities are within walking distance from village accommodations. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since paths between the springs and lodgings cross hilly terrain.
The mineral water here contains specific mineral combinations believed to help with various health conditions. This particular composition sets these springs apart from other spa areas in the region.
