Sandefjord Spa information


The 1899 "Kurbadet" in Sandefjord, Norway is made in dragestil ("style of a dragon").[1][2][3]

Sandefjord Spa (Norwegian: Sandefjord Kurbad, often shortened to Kurbadet), was a spa in Sandefjord, Norway, established by Heinrich Arnold Thaulow in 1837.[4][5] The main building from 1899 is one of the largest wooden buildings in Norway[6] and in the Nordic countries overall.[7][8] Kurbadet was one of Europe's most visited baths in the late 1800s.[9] Royalty and Prime Ministers from throughout Europe visited the spa in the late 1800s.[10] It was the first spa in Sandefjord and functioned as a medical institution focusing on the treatment of symptoms for rheumatic diseases. A majority of spa visitors were from Norway, but international guests from Germany, Britain and the United States also visited Kurbadet.[11]

The spa was open from 1837 until 1939, when it became a municipal property.[12] The buildings are now housing a café, bar, gallery, and a host of local associations.[13] The bath's original building from 1899 is made in style of a dragon[14] and is located in the city centre. Tours of Kurbadet can be scheduled.[15][16]

Badeparken, or "the Bathing Park", is located nearby and was established by the spa in 1902.[17][18]
