The architectural jewel was built from 1910 to 1911 in just eight months to plans by the architect Max Littmann.
Amidst lush gardens
Long rows of columns divide the room into three longitudinal naves and give it the appearance of a basilica. The building is made of reinforced concrete, which was then considered to be innovative. Long arcades connect the Wandelhalle with the arcade and regent building. At that time, the integrated concert shell turned outwards towards the spa garden was regarded as revolutionary. The Wandelhalle is embedded in the lush gardens and parks that stretch along the Franconian Saale. Here, as well as in other Bavarian state baths, King Ludwig I had a finger in the pie. The king who wrote poetry was considered a friend of the arts and had a weakness for the dancer Lola Montez and magnificent spa buildings, which includes the Wandelhalle.

As a landmark in architecture and interior design, the historic Kursaal building from 1833 at the state bath in Bad Brückenau is the visiting card of the spa and resort city.

The decorated, elaborate cast-iron pavilions had sheltered the temple and meadow spring in the park for several decades but were removed in the 1950s when public access to the spring was closed.
