Salt Towers

These are the huge saline graduation towers unique to the small spa town of Ciechocinek. The town situated close to ToruĊ„, is famous for its spa and thousands of people (mainly old) flock to one of the numerous sanitoriums for some remedy.

The towers were built in the 19th Century and are used to evaporate water from brine. You can climb the structures (15,8m high) for some great views!
