The city of Truskavets has been known since ancient times as a balneological resort with a wide range of medicinal mineral waters. Back in 1721, one of the textbooks contains information that the inhabitants of Truskavets and other villages of Galicia drank water mixed with oil to treat many diseases.
And the main among these waters is Naftusya, the first written mention of which dates back to 1469, and a more detailed description, written by the royal physician Wojciech Ochka, appeared in 1578. However, our world (or at least European fame) "Naftusya" was acquired after scientific research by the Lvov scientist, chemist and pharmacist Teodor Torosevich, who in 1835 made its chemical analysis and described the therapeutic effect.
Today you can try this wonderful water, as well as its accompanying "Maria" and "Sofia", in the Main or Lower pump room, located in the Kurortny Park on Torosevich Boulevard.
And if earlier, in the times of Poland, pretty young ladies in white aprons and scarves poured water in the pump-room, which led to huge queues at “rush hours”, now the pump-room is self-service and even with the maximum crowd of people you can always find a free tap and dial healing water. Moreover, experts strongly recommend drinking water in the pump room, so that it does not lose its medicinal properties, and, in addition, water of different temperatures is supplied in the pump room, which is important for different methods of treatment.
Large posters inside the Pump Room tell in detail and in three languages ​ ​ (Ukrainian, English and German) about the composition of all the waters poured in it, and especially insist on the absolute uniqueness of Naftusya!
Pump-room No. 1 is the center of spa life, where spa guests who come for treatment flock three times a day.
Here you can also find out all local news, hear announcements of cultural events, choose excursions that interest you, purchase authentic souvenirs and specialties. And during the hours when the pump room is closed, just primordial silence and tranquility reign here. : ))
