A small public hygiene bath with a men's and a women's section. The bath is in poor condition, but it works.
Each section has one shower, one small therapeutic pool and three stone basins (kurni). The water flows through continuously.
At the public fountain up to 5 spouts run continuously for washing and filling bottles.
There is also a laundry nearby for hand washing free of charge.

More information

The water and its healing properties

It is hyperthermal, low in minerals, sulphate-hydrocarbonate, sodium and fluoride water, with no sanitary-chemical or microbiological signs of pollution (38.7 ⁰C).
Drinking cures with this type of water act mainly on the gastrointestinal tract, the liver and gall bladder, and the kidneys and urinary system. The water helps reduce excess stomach acidity slightly and stimulates the movement of the bile ducts. The metasilicic acid in a colloidal state has a detoxifying effect. The fluoride ions strengthen tooth formation and allow the mineral water to be used to prevent tooth decay.
Used for external balneotherapy and balneoprophylaxis (after appropriate tempering to 33–35 °C), it has a beneficial effect on the following conditions: - of the musculoskeletal system – degenerative and inflammatory (in remission)
- joint diseases (arthritis, spondyloarthritis, arthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, etc.); - of the peripheral nervous system (disc disease, radiculitis, plexitis, etc.);
- orthopaedic and trauma conditions (for mobilisation after injuries and operations);
- skin conditions (chronic non-specific dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, etc.).
Contraindications for external balneotherapy:
- specific diseases;
- cancer;
- infectious diseases;
- diseases in the acute stage and decompensated function of organs and systems;
- ischaemic heart disease with arrhythmia;
- epilepsy.
