Dom Zdrojowy, Spa station in Krynica-Zdrój, Poland
Dom Zdrojowy is a spa station building designed in Neo-Renaissance style with ornate interior features and palatial architecture. The facility contains more than 150 guest rooms along with medical treatment areas offering hydrotherapy and mineral bath services.
The building was designed by architects Julian Niedzielski and Jan Zawiejski in 1889 during the spa town's period of expansion. It gained additional prestige when Poland's leader Jozef Pilsudski visited the facility during the 1920s and 1930s.
The name comes from the mineral springs that have drawn people here for centuries. Today, the building remains central to the spa town's social life, hosting concerts and events that bring visitors and locals together.
The building sits centrally within the spa town and is easily reached on foot from major attractions like the Concert Shell. Plan extra time to explore the various treatment areas and to appreciate the architectural details throughout the facility.
The facility once housed painter Nikifor Krynicki, a self-taught artist whose work reflected the life around the spa town. It also features a separate pump room dedicated to serving Mieczyslaw water sourced from local springs.
