family history ends, new era begins

The family Wund, known for their successes in thermal bath, has carried out a drastic cut in their history with this step. Jörg Wund had founded the Therme Erding 25 years ago with his late father, Josef Wund. After the tragic death of Josef Wunder in a plane crash in 2017, Jörg Wund took over the guidance of the baths. This family is not only active in Erding, but also in Bad Wörishofen with another large bathroom. Whether this thermal bath was also for sale was denied by Jörg Wund. The Therme Bad Wörishofen remains family-owned, as Augsburger-allgemeine.de

The Therme Group, led by Dr. Robert Hanea, not only plans to operate the Erding thermal baths, but also the further development and the expansion of the offer. The new partnership has a lot of potential for the future, as the Therme Erding and the Bucharest thermal baths are to attract over 3.5 million visitors in the current year. This means that the future of the leisure pool is populous and promising, despite the change in leadership.
