Băile Szejke

Szejke Baths, on the edge of Odorheiu Secuiesc, are a small traditional spa renowned for the mineral springs used by locals for centuries for their healing properties. The place is closely tied to the memory of Orbán Balázs, the great scholar and ethnographer of Székely Land, considered the greatest Székely, who was buried here and whose memory is honoured by a monument and an avenue of carved Székely gates, true works of folk art. Beyond the baths themselves, the area offers a quiet setting for walks, with forest nearby and clean air, suited to relaxation.

It is a charming stop for those discovering Székely Land and its living traditions, easily combined with a visit to Odorheiu Secuiesc. Check the schedule and availability of the baths, which may vary by season, and allow time for the avenue of carved gates.
