Bruck an der Mur

The former bathhouse from the 16th century is a real historical treasure of the city. The house now houses a restaurant and private room rental with special room furnishings.

The showroom includes the remains of the foundations of a previous medieval building are visible. The former bath house is now also home to an excellent restaurant.
