EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to the elegant and enchanting Kurhaus of Wiesbaden, Germany, as depicted in this stunning photograph from the 1910s. This iconic spa house, located in the heart of Wiesbaden, was once known as the "Weltkurstadt," or "World's Spa City," attracting visitors from around the globe in search of cures and relaxation. The Kurhaus, with its impressive West Front facade, stands proudly against the night sky, its dark silhouette illuminated by the soft glow of floodlights. The intricate architectural details of the building, designed by the renowned architect Friedrich von Thiersch, are beautifully accentuated by the atmospheric lighting. The main entrance, adorned with ornate columns and a grand archway, invites visitors to enter and experience the magic within. The side of the building reveals a tranquil bowling green, where guests could enjoy a leisurely game under the stars. The illuminated fountain in the foreground adds an extra touch of charm to the scene, creating a serene and peaceful atmosphere. The Kurhaus was not only a place of healing, but also a social hub, where conventions and gatherings took place, making it a beloved destination for both locals and tourists alike. This postcard, captured in the early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the rich history and allure of Wiesbaden's Kurhaus, a true architectural masterpiece and a symbol of the city's proud past.
