Leopoldsprudel, Thermal spring and architectural monument in Bad Salzuflen, Germany.
Leopoldsprudel is a thermal spring with a classical monopteros pavilion located in the Kurpark of Bad Salzuflen and is protected as an architectural monument. The spring emerges from deep underground and feeds the pavilion with its mineral-rich water.
The spring was drilled between 1904 and 1906 and named after Leopold IV of Lippe, the last reigning prince of the region. This period marked a turning point as Bad Salzuflen developed into a growing spa destination.
The monopteros structure surrounding the spring showcases classical architectural elements with its circular design and supporting columns in the Kurpark. The design shapes how visitors experience this protected heritage site and creates a gathering place within the park.
The spring is located in the Kurpark and is freely accessible to visitors who want to explore the grounds. The park provides plenty of space for walking, sitting, and viewing the classical architecture up close.
The spring originates from a depth of around 400 meters within an ancient rock formation and gains its distinctive mineral content through this journey. This water is the result of natural filtration through old geological layers.
