Gyula - Várfürdo Baths

The large Várfürdo baths in a 30ha (75 acre) park on Kossuth Lajos utca, provide everything the visitor to the spa can wish for. The waters, with a temperature of 70°C (158°F) at source, contain sodium and hydrated sodium carbonate and have proved beneficial especially in the treatment of joint problems and gynecological complaints. The old baths were built in 1833 by converting a former riding school. The complex also includes a sanatorium and a spa hotel with 800 beds.
