Bad Lippspringe

Bad Lippspringe is a spa town in the Paderborn district nestled on the western slopes of the Teutoburger Forest. The naturally warm springs found here feed therapeutic facilities that serve visitors seeking remedies for various ailments.

Medieval knights established a presence here in the 13th century, recognizing the value of the area early on. The town gained formal municipal status in 1400, marking the beginning of its growth as a settlement with recognized rights.

The town's identity centers on its natural springs, which have drawn visitors for centuries and shaped local life and traditions. People here view the water as part of their heritage and daily rhythm.

Visitors come throughout the year to use the thermal facilities, which operate in a landscape that remains accessible in all seasons. The springs maintain steady temperatures year-round, making any month suitable for a visit, though peak periods tend to draw larger crowds.

The River Lippe, which becomes a major waterway across the region, originates within this town's boundaries. This geological connection links the local springs to a river that flows far beyond into the surrounding landscape.
