The Unique Characteristics of the Burtscheid Springs

On this walk, you’ll delve into the 2,000-year-old history of the Wurm River in Burtscheid. From the Romans’ first canals, through the eventful era of the abbesses with their mills and baths, to the sophisticated spa life of the 19th century. What drew celebrities like Casanova and Frederick the Great to Burtscheid? You’ll also learn about the long journey rainwater takes to become a bubbling mineral spring.
