Pärnu Mud Baths
Pärnu Mudaravila
A neoclassical mud-therapy hall from 1927, a symbol of Pärnu's spa tradition, now operating as a spa hotel.
Pärnu opened a seawater bathing beach in 1838 and later became famous for sea mud therapy. The surviving mud bath house was built in 1927. Its yellow-and-white neoclassical façade and columned entrance make it the most striking historic building in the seaside district, and it once offered mud packs and mud baths for many years. After renovation it now operates as a spa hotel, where visitors can book mud therapy, massage or sauna experiences, or simply photograph it from outside. It sits beside the beach and is about a 15-minute walk from the Old Town.
