Hotel Corvus Aqua - History of the Hotel

History of Gyopárosfürdő goes back to the late 1860s, but there are more information about the town a few years earlier. The place was founded in 1846 as they called Gyopárhalma. People used the Lake Gyopáros for practical things such as horse-bathing or retting hemp. Then they recognised the healing effect of the water.  

Dr. Elek László, who was a local doctor, started the building of the spa in 1869. Only a decade later the bath was created on the southern part of the lake and became a popular attraction visited by people arriving from distant places.

The water of the lake was permanently analysed, examined and its healing power was scientifically proved: it cured a lot of different diseases.

After years with ups and downs, pauses in the developments, tenant hunting and decline the first decade of the 20th century brought a significant breakthrough for Gyopárosfürdő: the management of the town realized again the opportunities hiding in the spa. On top of that starting from 1906 the new railway line connected Orosháza to Szentes touching the popular suburb. Later a regular train service was set. Although the development of the spa has always been continuous the period after the two World Wars brought years of recession.

The Water Tower which was built in 1925 by István Szél’s plans in those days supplied this area with water. It was renovated many times and nowadays is working as a museum, it is the symbol of Gyopárosfürdő.

In 1999 water of the Lake was declared to medicinal water then due to supports the Spa was opened in 2004. After the overall renovation rehabilitation services and relaxing opportunities extend in Adventures pools and Thermal park. Orosháza – Gyopárosfürdő has one of the best quality- alkali- hydrogen-carbonated medicinal water.
