Bad Zurzach was a medieval market and pilgrimage town when a borehole struck hot mineral water in the mid-1950s; the bath opened shortly afterwards and turned the village into one of Switzerland's principal spa resorts. The complex now runs a broad set of indoor and outdoor mineral pools with a sauna village alongside.

Pourquoi y aller

It is an easy, civilised Swiss bathing day: warm mineral pools, the Rhine and the German border a walk away, and a well-kept medieval centre around the Verena minster.
