Quellenpark Kronthal

Quellenpark Kronthal is a park located in the valley between Kronberg and Mammolshain, featuring four separate mineral springs each with different mineral content. Pathways connect visitors directly to these springs, while the grounds also offer picnic areas, footbaths, and recreational facilities.

The area was transformed into a spa destination in 1833 when a bathhouse was constructed, establishing it as a healing retreat. Throughout the following century, the mineral springs drew increasing numbers of visitors seeking the therapeutic benefits of the waters.

In the 19th century, artists from the Kronberg painter colony came here to capture the natural beauty in their works. Today visitors can feel this artistic connection as they walk through the green valleys where these creators once found inspiration.

The park can be explored on foot through clear pathways that wind through the valley and connect the different springs. Comfortable walking shoes are recommended since the routes pass through varied terrain with some gentle slopes.

Water from these springs was shipped around the world in clay jugs during the 19th century, gaining international fame as a therapeutic product. This global trade revealed how seriously people took the health benefits claimed for the mineral water.
