Intro

The Alte Bad Pfäfers is housed in a monumental bathhouse with a chapel.

The Alte Bad Pfäfers is housed in a monumental bathhouse with a chapel. The baths museum provides an insight into the eventful history of the baths and bathing from its origins to the present day. Important exhibition topics include the discovery of the spring in the Middle Ages, the Pfäfers spa as a humanist meeting place, the channeling of water from the gorge in 1630 and the Baroque baths built between 1704 and 1716.

The monastery museum presents the Benedictine monastery as the spiritual and cultural center of Sarganserland, from its foundation to its abolition in 1838. The life and work of Paracelsus, who was the first spa doctor to work in the old Pfäfers spa, is shown in the Paracelsus memorial.

The generously designed media library and an audio walk bring the history of the baths and bathing to life.
