The spa town of Baile Herculane has a long history of human habitation. In modern times, the
spa town has been visited for its supposedly natural healing properties: hot springs with sulfur,
chlorine, sodium, calcium, magnesium and other minerals, as well as negatively ionized air.
Before World War II, when the first modern hotel was built (i.e. H Cerna, 1930) it remained
a popular destination with Western Europeans. The spa's weather is specific for mountain's
depressions, Baile Herculane being on the same parallel with Nisa and Venezia.
THE SPRINGS have a high radioemanation level, similar to the ones of Vichy and Montdore.
At present, 16 natural springs with thermal mineral water, scattered along the Cerna Valley for
about 4 km, are known in the neighbourhoud of the resort.
