Discover the Health Park Salinental

Bad Kreuznach

Bad Kreuznach offers wellness, health, and spa treatments, as well as magnificent natural landscapes in the romantic Nahe Valley.

As the world's oldest radon brine spa, Bad Kreuznach developed into a renowned spa town at the beginning of the 20th century.
