Thermal baths & spa towns
About
Driburg Therme is a thermal spa and sauna complex in Bad Driburg. According to the operator the pools are fed with officially recognised healing water from local springs; thermal water at 32 to 36 °C fills five pools. The operator describes it as a health spa with a family atmosphere, not a fun pool with water slides.
The sauna world offers, according to the operator, a circus-wagon sauna, an earth sauna and a biotope sauna outside, three indoor saunas (for example a hay sauna), a Swiss stone pine sanarium, a dry-fog sauna with micro-salt, an infrared cabin, steam baths and a caldarium. According to the website the sauna world is a textile-free area. The operator reports the "Sauna Premium" certification for 2025–2028.
