HISTORY
The waters of Fiuggi flow from two hydrothermal establishments: the Fonte Bonifacio VIII and the Fonte Anticolana.
FONTE ANTICOLANA
The first dates back to the 20th century and the initial version remains the main entrance in liberty style.
Here care is taken by taking the water directly from the many fountains scattered among the green of the park and the closed space,
where it’s possible to heal even in winter.
FONTE BONIFACIO VIII
The Bonifacio VIII source takes its name from Pope Boniface VIII, who used these waters to cure kidney stones,
making them constantly arrive in Rome.
Even Michelangelo Buonarroti benefited from the therapeutic properties of Fiuggi water along with other well-known personalities
(kings, nobles, ambassadors) of the Italian landscape.
This source was inaugurated in 1911 and rebuilt in the 1960, with open and closed spatial services.
Inside the establishment, there is an elevator and a treadmill that connect the upper part and the lower part, bar,
multi-purpose rooms and a specialized urological clinic.
The Anticolana spring is also known as the "new spring" because it is more recent, built in 1920.
Here we come in the afternoon to walk in the large park, full of chestnut trees, centenarian elm trees and all kind of flowers.
Inside there are tennis courts and bowls, mini golf, a playground for children.
It’s possible to admire all this by taking a sightseeing tour on a colourful train.
The medical rooms where patients are visited before starting hydroponic treatment also arise at this source.
