……

Schlaneid or Terlan in the Botzen district is currently unused.

At Sgmus near Tschengels in the Schlanders district court, a sodium-iron spring emerges, which has been recommended for several centuries against rheumatalgia, gout, chlorosis, and chronic eruptions; the bath is in good condition and fairly well-visited, but the surrounding marshes make the stay unpleasant.

…..

At Spandin in the Vintschgau, an alleged mineral spring was used by the populace in the 17th century; nowadays it appears to be neglected.

The Bad Kochenmoos near Staben in the Botzen district has a muriatic spring, used against rheumatalgia, gout, and chronic skin diseases.

…..

The Taufererbad near Löwenberg in the municipality of Tscherms in the Botzen district, a saline chalybeate water, is in good condition and is quite frequently used against gout, eruptions, paralysis, rheumatism, and chronic ulcers.

At Terlan in the Botzen district, a sulfur spring is said to be located.

The Thurnerbacherbad in the municipality of Eppan is an earthy-saline chalybeate and sulfur water; it is recommended for disorders of digestion, secretions and excretions, and habitual ulcers, specifically by Dr. Dallatorre, a physician who has successfully practiced his art for over 50 years.
