Excerpt: Rymanow-Zdroj is a village and a spa in southern Poland, in Subcarpathian Voivodeship, in Krosno County. Rymanow-Zdroj lies 4 km south of the town Rymanow, in the valley of the river Tabor surrounded by low mountains. It is located in the heartland of the Do y (Pits), and its average altitude is 430 metres above sea level, although there are some hills located within the confines of the city.

In 1882 the new spa received a silver medal at an exhibition in Cracow. From that moment the spa expanded rapidly. A children's sanatorium was built in 1885, and a spa pavilion in 1885. The resort became popular with the rising middle class of Lwow, the capital of the Galicia province in Austrian occupied Poland. Many private, ornate villas were constructed.

In the late 1930s up to 5,000 people visited the spa annually. World War II the spa was almost totally destroyed. After the war, it was rebuilt as a children's sanatorium. In 1965 a new sanatorium was...
