Continuing our route through the resorts inactive in the province of Ourense , returned to the town of Verin . Remember, as stated in the entry spa and bottling Requeixo Villaz that this city is characterized by the large number of springs and the use made of its waters.
Some are still active and others were abandoned long ago. 
As further check on our trip to the spa mondon , one thing we learned in our visits to these places and the spa concept in this region be had. While we often imagine a spa as a place where relaxing bath full of body and mind, in these areas, the spa is intended as a place attached to a spring whose composition in various minerals, were suitable for the treatment of various diseases related to deficiency in these elements. As an example, high iron concentrations in the waters of mondon make this liquid suitable for the treatment of anemia, illness occurred in the absence of this metal. In the same way that preventoria were abandoned once found a cure for tuberculosis (see entry mountain sanatorium E spun ), spas ceased to be useful when you found a way to manage those minerals artificially healing or medicinal acquiring that water was enough to approach the nearest supermarket.
baths Caldeliñas be considered an advance or approach to the current spa concept, as practiced in the mud baths where the hot springs were used and bicarbonate -sodium, lithia , fluoride, salinity and alkalinity of the spring to cure skin diseases. Also assume that the water is also consumed orally to treat diseases such get gout, bladder stones, etc.
In the ruins that had to be the guest of the resort we found no obvious signs of religious reasons, but we assume that the tower still stands, housing a chapel, and that in all these resorts the religious aspect was so into account as health . Proof of this is the image of the Sacred Heart of Jesus still preserved in the resort of Requeixo or hood and frame that held the image of Santo Tomas de Beto in mondon spa.
currently is scheduled to return to transform and exploit the waters of this spring. The proximity to the town of Verin makes this an attractive place for the stranger who wants to enjoy these waters. A dense pine forest on the other side of the road, gives a slight indication that it was once dominant around the resort, today, a modern building houses bordering the site, highlighting yet again the ancient and noble, banana shade that mark the way to the bathrooms and offices. Some
the signpost images (now in day illegible) and the windows of the structure
Bathrooms
the bathrooms and spring. They still retained 4 rafts, bathtubs communicated with each other, and are responsible for collecting water emanating from the depths of the earth. also see another bath at a higher elevation, completely dry, which we imagine to be preparing or implementing curative mud. Whoever has had the privilege of plunging into the icy waters of any river in the area, mean when I say that water flows from the spring of caldeliñas is really hot. Displayed bubbles rhythmically indicate that the source is still alive.

A majestic building constructed of large blocks of granite, extending still awesome. A tower crowns the whole. The cover is lacking, but the walls and structure are preserved despite the passage of time, symbol of the strength with which these buildings were designed. In the input can distinguish an illegible sign to tell us the rule use and the place, now in ruins.
Verín Leaving the hospital, and Laza address, once you run out of town Salgueiro, right in the Fenton to sign population, the left side of the road we can see the whole spa and baths.
Nothing else see this poster, the margin left of the road are the bathrooms
baths Caldeliñas are included in a route called "Route das Augas ", which includes: the source of the toad, Cabreiroá , Sousas ... Surely one day we have some free hours invested in making this route you will see insurance thirst quenched and of course, the path represented as an entry in this blog.
