Discovered accidentally in 1240, the salubrious effects of Pfäfers' mineral springs were recognized early on. The famous natural scientist, physician and philosopher Paracelsus, who is regarded as the first spa physician of Bad Pfäfers, worked there in 1535 and wrote an entire book on the therapeutic effects of the water, which has a temperature of 36.5 degrees Celsius. The old Bad Pfäfers was extensively renovated between 1983 and 1995.
For visitors interested in history there is a Monastery- and Spa-Museum with changing exhibits. Only a few meters from the old Bad Pfäfers is the narrow Tamina Gorge with 70-meter-high rock faces. The gorge is easily accessible nowadays. A tunnel safeguards the path through the interior of the rock. It leads past a small thermal spring and up to the grotto fed by the thermal waters.
