Warm Springs Historic District, Historic rehabilitation complex in Warm Springs, Georgia, US
The Warm Springs Historic District contains multiple buildings from the 1920s and 1930s, including the Little White House and rehabilitation facilities with natural springs.
Franklin D. Roosevelt first visited the springs in 1924, seeking relief from polio, and later purchased the resort in 1927 to establish a treatment center.
The district transformed from a modest resort into a national center for polio treatment, drawing patients, scientists, and governmental leaders from across the country.
The Roosevelt Warm Springs Institute currently provides vocational rehabilitation, long-term care, and inpatient services for patients with various physical conditions.
The natural springs maintain a constant temperature of 88 degrees Fahrenheit, producing 914 gallons of water per minute throughout the year.
