Bad Driburg Hotels

Germany has a number of great health and wellness resorts and Bad Driburg in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany is one of the best. It is the perfect place to recharge your batteries while enjoying some breathtaking natural landscapes. Bad Driburg hotels offer visitors a comfortable, friendly place to stay, as you enjoy the rejuvenating effects of the spa and explore the beautiful surrounding areas.

This spa town sits next to the lovely River Aa in central Germany. It is nestled into the Eggegebirge National Park so it provides visitors with a wonderful, natural environment to explore. The National Park is a range of thickly forested mountains and the highest peak is Preussischer Velmerstot. This offers a rich environment for climbers, hikers and anyone just looking for a beautiful place to take a gentle stroll. You can enjoy the fresh air and unspoiled landscapes for as far as you can see.

Bad Driburg also sits at the base of the southern Teutoburg Forest in Lower Saxony and is the site of the ancient Battle of the Teutoburg Forest around 9 AD. This occurred when native German tribes clashed with the invading Roman legions and in which the Germans successfully repelled the Roman invaders. In the heart of the forest, you will discover Hermann's Memorial, a popular attraction that is named for Arminius, who was the leader of the German tribes in this battle and led them to a glorious victory. The stone monument was built in 1875 as a symbol of Germany's resistance to foreign rule by the then German Emperor, Wilheim I.

The spa itself has drawn visitors to 'take the waters' for over 200 years. The mud and mineral spas are said to have medicinal qualities, which caused the town to become a health and wellness resort. Today, there is a mixture of visitors; some arrive for treatment for serious conditions and many others visit the area for the general health benefits of the waters and serenity of the natural environment around Bad Driburg. There are many treatments that you can enjoy in the town to improve your general well being. The complementary spa treatments include massage and physiotherapy, as well as, of course, bathing in the mineral rich waters.

There are also rehabilitation clinics that provide treatments for all manner of disorders including heart, digestive and kidney problems. The best possible care and convalescence is offered here to improve the general health of anyone suffering from these problems.

The Royal Spa Gardens stretch for almost 150 acres, where you can wander past tranquil water fountains and beautiful, typically European rose gardens and manicured lawns. Here you will find a real sense of peace and serenity and a real treat for all the senses.

The natural beauty of this area has inspired many artists and is known to be the favorite place to take a walk of Johannes Brahms, the famous German composer, who was inspired to create some of his greatest works.
