Tucked into the gently rolling Allgäu countryside of Bavarian Swabia, Bad Wörishofen is a town whose character is shaped by water and the health tradition built around it. The Wörthbach runs through the town, while parks and walking routes reflect its long role as a spa destination. In the 19th century, priest Sebastian Kneipp developed and practised his water-based therapy here; his method also connected exercise, nutrition, medicinal plants and balanced living. A museum dedicated to Kneipp recalls the local figure whose name became associated with hydrotherapy far beyond Germany.
