History

In the area behind the Church of Csíksomlyó, the Franciscan Friars of Csíksomlyó used the water of the spring that sprang from the Franciscan's hayfield to form a pool and a private bath, which they called the "Brothers' Pool". Renovated in August 2006, the soda spring bath has been restored to its former name and location, and is now set in the beautifully landscaped pilgrimage garden.
