The Cure House



The Kurhaus at Cadmario, Switzerland is still there and still in business.  Unfortunately, I was unable to find out when it was built.  There's scaffolding and a date on this print.  12-IV-25, the 12th of April, 1925.  Repairs or construction, I wasn't able to determine.  Visiting the spa is fairly expensive now, but in 1925?  I suspect it wasn't cheap then, either, as the wealthy of Europe took the waters to cure what ailed them, and after the horrors of World War 1 and the Spanish Flu epidemic, I suspect people felt in need of a curative rest.
