The first written mention of Druskininkai dates back to 1636.
In the early 19th century Ignacy Fonberger, a professor at the University of Vilnius, analyzed the chemical composition of Druskininkai's waters and showed that they contain large amounts of Calcium, Sodium, Potassium, Iodine, Bromine, Iron and Magnesium. He also promoted the town as a holiday resort for the population of Vilnius. So in 1837 Tsar Nicholas I of Russia bestowed upon Druskininkai the status of a spa, and construction of pensions and hostels started.
By the beginning of the 20th century, the Druskininkai spa was one of the most popular resorts of the whole Russian Empire and popular summer residence for the middle class of Vilnius, Warsaw and Moscow.
Today half a million people visit this resort every year. But besides the spa procedures, this city is also known for its excellent museums, parks, monuments, all year round working snow park and some neat churches.
