Thanks to their strategic location and enchanting landscapes, the thermal baths of Sirmione attract tourists and visitors from all over the world.

Indeed, there is nothing better than taking a break from the daily routine by relaxing and pampering yourself in a thermal center with a welcoming and refined atmosphere.

The long history, combined with the numerous treatments with undeniable benefits, thanks to the unique natural characteristics of the area, make the Sirmione thermal baths a unique place to unwind and relieve stress.

The Origins of the Sirmione Thermal Baths

The great fame of the Sirmione thermal baths is largely due to the water, which has special beneficial properties. Its discovery is truly fascinating and dates back a long time.

Since the time of the Italian unification, the sulfur spring from which this special water originates was known. However, it was only in 1889, thanks to a Venetian diver, that the exact source of the thermal water was discovered, namely the Boiola spring, allowing for specific studies on its beneficial properties. Subsequently, various works enabled the water to be channeled for different treatments and uses.

Thus, in 1890, the first thermal center opened, and in 1921, the Terme e Grandi Alberghi Sirmione Company was founded. The two current establishments, Terme Catullo and the Virgilio Thermal Center, were built in 1951 and 1986, respectively, and have been expanded and modernized over the years.

Additionally, over time, new facilities and initiatives have been added to improve hospitality and offer increasingly specialized services. One example is the pediatric department at the Virgilio Thermal Center and the Aquaria Thermal SPA, where an expert staff performs cutting-edge health treatments.

Beneficial Treatments

Taking time for body care and wellness is essential to maintaining good physical health over time.

The benefits are numerous, as the treatments available at the Sirmione thermal baths mainly focus on the water, whose therapeutic properties are now well known.

Its origins make it rich in mineral salts, sulfur, and iodine, ideal for antiseptic, moisturizing, anti-inflammatory treatments, and for stimulating the immune system. Sirmione's water takes twenty years to reach us: it originates at an altitude of 800 meters from the Monte Baldo basin and descends 2,100 meters below sea level, where it reaches a temperature of 69 degrees. Once at the thermal baths, it can be enjoyed at a more moderate temperature, providing multiple benefits for the skin, circulatory system, and respiratory system.

Here, you can leave stress behind and relax with a lake view through massages, sensory paths, and wellness rituals for individuals and couples.

The Sirmione thermal baths offer indoor and Finnish saunas, hydromassages, pools, and aroma-chromatic showers where you can immerse yourself and enjoy the benefits of this special water.

Moreover, the multi-sensory relaxation areas at Acquaria Thermal Baths are a must-see, along with the thermal mud treatments capable of healing circulatory, skin, and rheumatic disorders.
