In our permanent exhibition, you can learn interesting facts about salt and its extraction. The natural brine springs were the basis of the town's wealth. For centuries, the life of the inhabitants was determined by their work in the salt works. The owners of the boiling houses, known here as "Nappen", belonged to the respected Pfännerschaft and controlled the fortunes of the town. At the beginning of the 19th century, when trips to the spa and health resorts became fashionable, Bad Salzungen changed from a small country town to a spa resort.

The Healing effect of the brine inhaling and bathing brings spa guests from all over Europe to the town. You can see how spa treatments have changed over the course of time in our museum. After the tour, you can take a look inside the neighboring drilling tower. Bad Salzungen's strong brine is still extracted here today.

The Museum garden Behind the house there is a small boiling house, which is used for show cooking demonstrations.
