In 1822, an underground salt store was found during drilling. The brine with a salt content of 27% was extracted from 1823 and boiled in the salt works in large pans to make table salt. The brine has been used for spa treatments since 1883 (hence Sol bath). From July 1885 to September 1889, the physician Ernst Georg Kurz (1859-1937) worked here and in Bad Rappenau as a saltworks and bath doctor for the “Ludwigssaline”, which was equipped with classicist buildings by F. Arnold in the Weinbrenner style. [6] In 1921 Dürrheim was given the rating bath.
