Pärnu Mud Baths

In the heart of Pärnu, near the beach promenade, is the Mud Baths building, an architectural gem that stands as a symbol of the history of this vibrant resort town.

This neoclassical building was completed in 1927, over a bathing facility destroyed during World War I. The building was designed by the architects Olev Siinmaa, Erich von Wolffeldt, and Alexander Nürnberg. To this day, the building remains one of Pärnu's most emblematic structures.

From 1838, the Mud Baths began offering warm sea baths in the summer and sauna in the winter. This was the beginning of Pärnu as a resort town – a place where people sought health, peace, and relaxation. During the Soviet era, mud baths were highly regarded, as taking care of the health of the working class was of paramount importance.

Currently, the cozy Hedon Spa operates there, combining historical elegance and modern well-being. The renovated building retains its stately nature while providing luxury spa services and relaxing treatments.

Every visit here is a journey back in time. Take a walk through the resort culture from a century ago, while enjoying the modern comforts of today.
