Historic and royal spa facilities in Bad Lauchstädt

Let yourself be pampered by a touch of Goethe and get to know a part of the poet.

Bad Lauchstädt became famous for its historic royal spa facilities as a luxury and fashion spa and the Goethe Theater. As early as the 18th century, the luxury and fashion spa attracted the nobility as well as the aspiring bourgeoisie to its tasteful spa facilities created by the Merseburg master builder Johann Wilhelm Chryselius. However, the real fame came with the theater, which was built in 1802 under the plans of Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.
