The natural, thermal water was originally brought to the surface in 1886. It enters the spa at a temperature of 70ºC but it is then cooled to 34°C, 36°C and 40°C while retaining its unique, curative ingredients. The thermal water on the Margaret Island is famous for its healing effects on conditions such as joint and muscle problems, certain degenerative nerve conditions, some circulation disorders, and many other complaints. Relaxing in the thermal water is also a perfect way to unwind and release the stresses and tensions of modern life.

Danubius Health Spa Resort Margitsziget boasts one of Europe's top Health Spas, the therapies of which are based on the utilisation of the water from three of the Margaret Island's natural thermal springs.
