The strongest heritage anchor in Croatia’s thermal landscape: a contemporary spa town layered over Aquae Iasae, the Roman settlement that developed around its hot spring.
Why it belongs on the thermal map
Archaeology gives Varaždinske Toplice unusual depth. The Roman thermal complex makes the relationship between water, settlement and ritual visible rather than abstract.
