The well was closed during the Second World War and it was reconstructed in 1948. The investigations have discovered later - what the people, who were digging holes in the sand, around the draining depth water, sensed instinctively - Cserkeszőlő thermal water is an effective medicinal water. Grape production in sandy soil has played a really great part in the emergence of Cserkeszőlő, the name, used also today has been improved this way. The construction of the spa was started in 1954 - it has become more and more popular among the inhabitants of the neighbour villages and towns. Despite the deservedly famous medicinal water, the development of the spa and its environment was not properly emphasized until 1998, but Cserkeszőlő spa has been completely reconstructed and significantly developed in last years, its environment has been beautified, thus it welcomes the guests in a dignified way.
