History
Established in 1935.
The Hall of Springs was the first building to have its cornerstone laid during the construction of the Modern Spa, 1933 – 35.
The building was intended as a Drink Hall patterned after the European example. Three representative types of water (Geyser, Hathorn, and Coesa) would be piped into the Hall for patrons to drink while they listened to live orchestral music and strolled inside or out. Because the waters lost carbonation in storage and corroded the copper-lined storage tanks, this scheme was never fully realized.
The interior atmosphere of grand style was enhanced by the marble floors and columns, Belgian crystal chandeliers, and high vaulted ceiling. The purpose of the Hall of Springs may be better understood if it’s compared with a German Beer Hall, with one major difference; the water was seen as being healthy for mind and body. But the social reasons for coming to a drink hall were comparable.
