Visit the spa park in Piestany
You are standing in the heart of one of the most beautiful spa towns in Slovakia. In front of you there is a green spa park, which at first sight offers a feeling of peace and escape from everyday life. Feel the atmosphere - the roaring trees, the gentle stream of water, the screaming earth, and the silent whisper of history that has been preserved for centuries. Park changed with time, but still keeps its original spa function.
The establishment of a spa park in Piešťany is linked to old traditions, which developed here in Roman times. Water from local springs was known for its healing effects in ancient times, but the first written mention of the spa in Piešťany dates back to the 18th century. Then the first spa buildings and parks began to be built, which became a favourite place of nobility and ordinary people looking for relief from disease. Piešťany gradually evolved from a small spa place to a prestigious resort, visited by important personalities from all over the Habsburg Empire.
Take a closer look at the area of the park - its vast areas are connected by roads and alleys. The park was designed as a therapeutic place where visitors could get carried away by nature and the healing effects of water. See also the variety of trees and flowers that grow here - some of them centuries old and became part of the local ecosystem.
In the park you will find various spa buildings and architectural details that give the place its characteristic atmosphere. Fountains and water elements are part of the overall park concept. Water here is not only a decorative element, but also a therapeutic agent used here for centuries.
Although there were no detailed records of the specific architects and historical personalities that were around, it is clear that this park was a meeting place for people from different levels of society. Here they were treated, rested, and exchanged experiences. Some of these stories have been preserved in local traditions and traditions that still remind people of the importance of this place in the past.
Before leaving, we suggest you go out in the park and discover its hidden corners. Every bend here has its history, and every tree, every path can remind you of something from the past. Piešťany is a place that keeps changing, but also keeps its original soul. And when you leave, you take with you memories of the beauty of nature and the history that lives here today.
Thank you for coming back to the past with us for a while. Once you return to Piešťany, you will otherwise perceive every tree, every stream of water and every step along the roads of this spa park. When we meet again - perhaps at the next discovery.

Seasonal recommendations
Spa park in Piestany
Spring In the spa park in Piešťany with the arrival of spring, the massive trees turn into green and flower beds bloom after winter months. The sun's rays in spring days shine pleasantly, but mornings and evenings can still be cool. For walks it is suitable with layered clothing, windproof jacket and comfortable shoes, because the trails on the rains are wet.

Light is sharp, but in the evening it creates a picturesque atmosphere suitable for long walks. In the main summer season it is advisable to visit the park early in the morning or late in the afternoon when temperatures fall. Light clothing, sunglasses, head cover and sufficient fluid supply are recommended. Protection against insects is also important.
Fall In autumn, the park turns into a colorful palette of yellow, orange, and brown, when the falling leaves form rustling carpets on the ground. The light acquires a soft, golden cold, especially during the morning fog moments. For this time it fits warmer clothes, waterproof jacket and tight shoes, because the trails can be covered with damp leaves. The best is to visit the park around noon when the sun for a while breaks through the cloud.
Winter In the winter months, the park has a quiet character, especially after fresh snow, which dampens the sounds of the surrounding area. Days are short and light dimmed, the sun almost sets. For walks it is necessary to warm winter clothes, hats, gloves and footwear with slip soles. It is best to visit the park in the morning when it is the warmest and brightest outdoors.
