Bad Windsheim's brine is strong enough that the Franken-Therme's indoor salt lake carries bathers effortlessly on the surface — the pool that made the therme's reputation. Milder brine pools indoors and out, a large sauna garden and a Roman-style steam bath complete it, beside the Franconian open-air museum.
