Whether you are a guest for cure or holiday - you will be seduced by Vogtland's wellness programs and the beauty of nature. Kings, emperors, and the prince of poets, Goethe himself, took the waters in the heartland of European spas - at the crossroads of Saxony, Bavaria and Bohemia. This region cares for its guests with numerous mineral springs, state of the art spa grounds and therapeutic facilities, specialized spa physicians, a rich variety of sports and leisure activities, underscored by the hospitality of its people.

Bad Elster, tucked in the meadow valley of Elster river and framed by wooded crests, has a spa tradition of 150 years. The "water of life" springs from ten mineral springs, set among sensuously appealing parks, restored architecture and broad esplanades reflecting the intimate grandeur of an old spa town. Rasul applications include mud baths and steam baths with herbal fragrances, attended by expert staff. The emphasis lies on holistic therapies and natural remedies.

Bad Brambach is situated in the pleasing scenery of the Bad Elster mountains, impressing visitors with pretty spa buildings, open waters and, once again, a well tended park. Its six mineral wells excel by their high concentration in minerals, iron and carbon dioxide and they offer a rare feature - radon. Applied under medical supervision, this noble gas activates the cell metabolism, which aids the regeneration of bruised tissue and diseased organs, soothing a good many painful and protracted ailments.
