Since 1915 in the newly opened mineral water pump room the “Kujawianka” mineral water appeared that was taken from a local mining spring. The importance of the spa of Inowroc³aw was further increased due to the patronage of the German Emperor and Empress.
Prosperity period occurred during the times of the Second Republic of Poland. The spa, honoured through having been granted the official name of “Inowroclaw-Zdroj”, as early as in 1920 had a concert bowl built as well as other therapeutic departments of brine baths and acid-carbonaceous baths (built between 1922 to 1924) and the nature-therapeutical department, the so-called inhalation department (1928-1929).
The first sanatorium was the building of the Social Insurance Institution, erected in the years 1928-1930. In the neighbourhood, in the western part of the town, a resort estate with lavish houses and guest houses quickly emerged. The Brine Park was carefully maintained: new pedestrian zones and lawns were created, new tennis courts were built; a bridge, a pier and a stylised lighthouse were built on one of the park ponds.

Inowroclaw is known as a popular resort spa in Poland.
Doctor of Law Zygmunt Wilkonski and barristers – Samuel Hoeniger and Oskar Triepcke were the founders and main shareholders of the “Solanki Inowroclawskie” joint stock company which was registered in the Royal County Court in Inowroclaw on May 4th 1875. The company purchased areas from the town for the construction of bathing premises as well as the resort park and as early as in 1876 the first therapeutic department was put into operation, with 14 bathtubs for brine baths. One year later other brine bathrooms with 15 bathtubs, and in 1880 the third department called “Nowy Swiat” (the New World) were opened.
Mostly the subject of treatment were to be rheumatic, gynaecological and skin diseases as well as lymphonodular tuberculosis; moreover, in 1886 bathrooms for rheumatism-suffering children were built. Later on, the existing buildings were modernised and new ones were built (for instance, a greenhouse was designed).
