HISTORY |
| |
|
|
| |
|
|
|
The Kempinski Grand Hotel des Bains is located next to the
old "Mauritius" spring, the origin of St. Moritz.
Since two to three thousand years ago mankind has been
drinking from the sour water springs of St Moritz. The iron
spring was discovered during the Bronze Age and encapsulated
in a well that was used until 1907. In 1553, Paracelsus von
Hohenheim, visited the mineral spring of St Moritz and
immediately recognized the medical benefits of such a spring
which he then described in his medical writings. His
writings are said to be the first known and well preserved
medical writings describing the “Sanct Mauritz” sour water
spring. In Parcacelsus’s subsequent writings, he detailed
his preference of the St Moritz iron spring in comparison to
other similar springs throughout Europe.
It was through the discovery of the mineral source more than
3.460 years ago that St. Moritz and the Engadin became
popular for summer tourism. Even at the time of the Belle
Époque this monumental and imposing luxury hotel, equipped
with gas in 1874 and with electricity in 1888 (!), attracted
people of high and highest rank, royalties, politicians and
artists from all over the world, seeking and finding health
and rest here. |
