Popular thermal spa in western Hungary will not open this year
The thermal bath of Csorna has one of the strongest thermal waters in Hungary. Due to its high salt, sodium and potassium content, the bath is recommended for musculoskeletal, gynaecological and respiratory patients. It is also suitable for the treatment of psoriasis. However, this year, the thermal bath will not open due to renovation works.
The bath is being renovated, opening is expected for 2024
This year, on the 50th anniversary of its opening, one of the most popular thermal baths will not open in Csorna, termalonline.hu reports. They write that the spa is being renovated and will not be completed until the end of the summer. The opening is expected in 2024. The spa, 32 kilometres from Győr, is one of the most mineral-rich thermal spas in the country, and it has a medicinal water certification.
Its medicinal water is used to treat many conditions
Thanks to its unique composition and high salt, sodium and potassium content, the medicinal water of Csorna can be used to treat various locomotor, gynaecological and respiratory diseases, as well as stomach ulcers, gall bladder problems, intestinal disorders and psoriasis, napi.hu writes.
Back in 1970, the well was drilled by the local farmers’ cooperative. The spa was then opened in 1973.
Short history of the Csorna thermal bath
Not many improvements have been made to the baths in the past decades. For a long time, the renovation was hampered by the fact that the thermal well supplying the baths was privately owned. Due to various disputes, the spa was closed between 2009 and 2012.
In 2017, the municipality bought the thermal well. With the help of a non-refundable state grant, the development of the beach could start. It included the renovation of the thermal well, the renewal of the mechanical equipment, the pools and the buffets.
The works started last year. The spa was still open in the summer of 2022, but only two of the five pools were operational. The spa management and the municipality decided to skip this season and reopen in 2024.
