The Szechenyi Thermal Bath is one of the largest spa complexes in Europe. It's also the first thermal bath of Pest. It owes its existence to Vilmos Zsigmondy, a mining engineer. on his initiative, successful deep borings had been performed in the City Park, where later, in 1881 already an "Artesian bath" was in operation. However, this temporary type of bath was meeting the demands of the age less and less, so the Szechenyi Thermal Bath was built in 1913 on the basis of plans composed by Gyozo Czigler.
The complex was expanded in 1927, and currently has 3 outdoor, and 15 indoor pools. After its expansion, the thermal artesian well couldn't fullfill its purpose, so a new well was drilled. The second thermal spring was found in 1938. Its depth is 1256m (4 120 ft), and its temperature is 77 °C (170.6 °F) and it supplies 6.000.000 litres (1 585 032 US gallons) of hot water daily
The complex was damaged during the second world war, and was reconstructed in many steps till 1952, when the daily hospital service opened for people who needed physico therapy treatment.
The reconstruction of the pools of the swimming section, their equipment with water filtering and circulation devices was completed in 1999. The so-called fancy bath includes a whirling corridor, underwater effervescence production, neck shower, water beam back massage installed in the sitting banks and many other features.
Its thermal spring is one of the deepest and warmest in the city. The bath is located in the City park, opposite of the City Circus and it can be reached by subway line No. 1 (station of the same name: Szechenyi furdo).

Thermal-cascade sauna unique in Hungary
 |
A brand new cascade sauna was installed at Szechenyi Thermal Baths at the beginnings of November, 2015.
At the thermal-cascade cabin you can experience different temperature and humidity at the different pad levels. You can reduce or increase the temperature and the humidity in a pleasant and gradual way in the different levels.
In a pleasant atmosphere the cascade operated by thermal water makes the air vaporous, saturating it with the intense scent of thermal water.
The beneficial effects of thermal water are well known by everyone. At our new cabin you can pamper your body both internally and externally at the same time, as drinking water is also available in the cabin.
So the special cabin combines the many advantages of using a sauna, but it is a gentler and milder form of using a sauna having less impact on the body.
Suggested time for use: 10-15 minutes for 2-3 occasions.
The experience can be enhanced by cooling down the body with showers between the cabin uses.
