Contrexéville

Contrexéville sits at 365 meters elevation in the Vosges department, featuring thermal springs and wellness facilities within natural green landscapes of northeastern France.

The town's mineral springs gained recognition in the late 18th century, with modern thermal development beginning in 1965 when it became an established health resort destination.

Contrexéville maintains twin town relationships with Bad Rappenau in Germany, Llandrindod Wells in the United Kingdom, and Portuguese towns Luso and Mealhada for cultural exchanges.

The town serves approximately 2,932 residents and offers thermal baths at 32 degrees Celsius, casino entertainment, and accommodation options for health tourism visitors.

Contrexéville was the first spa resort to organize slimming cures, with its mineral waters now bottled globally by Nestlé under the Contrex brand name.
