The sulphur healing springs in Vienna were popular even amongst the Romans. To enable them to be used, Therme Oberlaa was opened in 1974 in the south of Vienna. In 2010, this was converted to become Therme Wien: 26 pools, 24 sauna and steam rooms, 2,500 loungers and a 6,000 m2 health and fitness area make it the largest thermal baths in Austria.

According to the German Wikipedia website, the origins of the spa date back to 1934 when drilling for natural gas resulted in tapping into a natural hot sulfurous water reservoir which is the source of the water used at the spa.
