EDITORS COMMENTS
A tranquil scene from the 18th century Spa town of Leuk, Germany, where the healing waters were renowned for their restorative properties. In this photograph from the past, we see people immersed in the mineral-rich waters, taking a break from their treatments to engage in intellectual pursuits. Floating chessboards and writing tables were provided for their long periods of stay, allowing them to maintain mental stimulation and social connection despite their physical confinement. The serene atmosphere of the spa is evident in the gentle ripples on the water's surface and the lush greenery surrounding the bathing area. The 18th century was a time when the pursuit of health and wellness was considered a luxury, and the Spa town of Leuk was a popular destination for the European elite seeking to improve their physical and mental wellbeing. This image offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the unique blend of relaxation, recreation, and rejuvenation that defined the Spa experience during this era.
