EB1911[edit]

This is the text in EB1911:

SODEN, a town and spa of Germany, in the Prussian province of Hesse-Nassau, pleasantly situated in the valley of the Sulzbach under the southern slope of the Taunus range, 10 ni. from Frankfort-on-Main and 4 m. N. from HOchst by rail. Pop. (1905), 1917. The chief interest of the place centres in its brine springs which are largely impregnated with carbonic acid gas and oxide of iron, and are efficacious in chronic catarrh of the respiratory organs, in liver and stomach disorders ~and womens diseases. The waters are used both internally and externally, and are largely exported. Soden lozenges (Sodener Pastillen), condensed from the waters, are also in great repute. Soden has a large and well-appointed Kurhaus, an Evangelical and a Roman Catholic church, and a hospital for indigent patients.

I'm positive this is about Bad Soden in the Main-Taunus-Kreis, not about Bad Soden-Salmünster in the Main-Kinzig-Kreis (which also has brine springs). Markussep 10:23, 4 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]
