Eger - Bath Quarter

Southeast of the Old Town, on the far side of the river, lies the Bath Quarter with radioactive springs which have been in use ever since the 14th C. Visitors can still see the ruins of an old Turkish bath (Török fürdo) on Dózsa-tér below the castle. As well as the thermal baths there is also an open-air bath surrounded by old trees. As the water from the Eger river mixes with the medicinal waters the effects of the springs are felt there too.
