The Spring of Peter the Great

Pouhon Pierre le Grand shelters the most prolific spring; naturally fizzy, it is full of mineral salts and rich in iron with an average flow rate of 21,000 liters per day.

Constructed in 1880 by Victor Besme, the building was completely renovated by the architect Léo Haesbroeck in 2012. It houses the Tourist Office and the celebrated Spa «Livre d’Or», the work of artist Antoine Fontaine, nine meters long and representing in joyous chronological disorder 92 famous people who came to take the waters at Spa.

Interactive animations show the wealth of Spa through its prestigious past as well as the current dynamism of the thermal city.

Open: Tourist Office opening times. Access to spring: 1 €.
