Gellért Baths Gellért Baths are one of the most popular baths in Budapest. As early as the Middle-Ages, a hospital was built to exploit the medicinal springs located at the foot of Gellért Hill; during the Turkish occupation, baths were also added. The new structure, raised in the 17th century, was named Sáros-fürdő (Muddy-Baths), after its muddy pond, to which therapeutic powers were attributed. The Gellért Baths, consisting of the baths and the hotel, was built between 1912 and 1918, in the Secessionist style.
