MEHADIA

This article appears in Volume V18, Page 78 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MEC-MIC
MEHADIA , a market town of
Hungary
 , in the county of Krassb-Szoreny, 287 M. S.E. of Budapest by rail. Pop. (1900), 2492. The town is the site of the ancient Roman colony Ad Mediam, near which passed the Roman road from the
Danube
  to Dacia. It contains the ruins of a fortress, and other Roman remains. In its neighbourhood are the famous Hercules baths (Hungarian, Herkulesfurdo). These are situated in a narrow rocky ravine in the valley of the Cserna, where there are 22 hot springs, of which nine are in use, the most powerful being the Hercules
spring
 . The springs are all strongly impregnated withsalts of
sulphur
 , iodine, bromine and chlorine, and their
average
  temperature is 700 to 145 F. They were famous in the Roman period under the name of Thermae Herculis or Fontes Herculis. Their popularity is attested by numerous
inscriptions
  and
relics
 . After the fall of the Roman
Empire
  they fell into disuse until 2735, but in modern times they have been much frequented.
