The water in our graduation tower comes from the Solankowa Kraina medicinal water mine.
It’s drawn from the “Sól-Tężnia” intake (SW2) in the village of Sól, Żywiec County. Brine springs in this area have been known and documented since the 15th century, and since the 19th century doctors and local mountain residents have used them for therapeutic purposes.
This brine water has long been an indispensable source of iodine and many other health supporting minerals and it still is today.
