The ancient thermal baths

Successive archaeological digs have established the existence of a Roman city between the 1st and 4th centuries AD, with large-scale thermal baths. The Roman baths were certainly very active until the barbarian invasions of the 5th century. The baths enjoyed a new period of prosperity at the end of the 16th century with Philippe V de Hanau, who built a bathhouse, recaptured the spring and carried out the first water analysis. This initiative quickly led to unanimous recognition of the beneficial effects of the springs. The Thirty Years' War brought its share of misery and ruin, with the destruction of the town and the thermal baths.
