Kallithea Springs, Thermal spa and protected building in Rodos Municipality, Greece.
Description
Kallithea Springs is a thermal spa complex set on hilly terrain overlooking the sea. The facility displays European-style architecture with bathing areas, terraces, columned passages, and views across the water.
History
The complex was built in 1929 following a design by Italian architect Pietro Lombardi, symbolizing an era when spa resorts appealed to wealthy travelers. In later decades the building went through different phases before eventually receiving protected status.
