Salsomaggiore, health and beauty

Temple of health and beauty, Salsomaggiore Terme is an elegant town with soft lines in Art Nouveau style crossed by precious waters. The sea, which in ancient times lapped these lands, left its rich heritage of saline imprint on the soil, making its waters curative. Nature, well-being and relaxation come together in its prodigious spa whose birth dates back to 1858 thanks to the intuition of an illustrious doctor who understood the beneficial properties of those waters rich in precious mineral salts. With the birth of the Duchy of Parma and Piacenza, the spas became elegant establishments, raised to real altars of beauty and well-being. However, it is in the flourishing period of the belle epoque that Salsomaggiore experienced its full bloom with the inauguration of the Grand Hotel Des Thermes, now home to the city congress palace and the scene of important media events such as Miss Italia. It was always the early 1900s that gave this Emilian town the splendor it still enjoys today, and it was in 1912 that the Berzieri was designed, a monumental spa and a unique and inimitable example of art deco. It is the events related to beauty and well-being that have, over the years, given sparkle to Salsomaggiore, which has become a real open-air theater especially during the period linked to the Miss Italia event, which turns into a unique opportunity to have eyes and spotlight on him. In Salsomaggiore not only spa and beauty parade. The generous territory that hosts it, in that food valley of food and wine excellence, stands out for its typical charm of the rolling hills of Emilia which have made it possible, thanks also to the encounter with the sea, the birth of a jewel of rare beauty that takes care of eyes, body and soul.
