Driburg Thermal Bath
Driburg Thermal Bath - where people feel at home
The individual recovery, relaxation and regeneration of our guests was at the forefront at the conception of the facility as a health-oriented thermal bath. We attach particular importance to the handicapped accessible equipment. The "Thermenbistro" of the Driburg Thermal Bath spoils the gums with many homemade dishes. Massages and cosmetic treatments round off a wellness day at the Driburg Thermal Bath.
