Centuries have passed, and the popularity of miracle water springs has only been growing. Members of different royal families came here in the belief that they discovered a miraculous healing spring. For a long time, the spa was accessible only to members of the upper classes and senior military officers. Today, however, they are accessible to anyone, who wants to try its healing effects.
Analyses show that acrothermal water in Rimske Terme is one of the richest in Slovenia in terms of content of chemical elements that have a beneficial effect on the human body. The well-being of people is also stimulated by the surroundings of the thermal baths, the crystal clear air and the fairytale landscape of unspoiled forests.
