The ciitizens of Truskavets (village at that time) had known about medical qualities of their "super water" long time before Truskavets mineral water was mentioned at first in the description of royal doctor Voytsekh Ochko in 1578 year. Then in 1810, during researching works on the territory to reveal available natural resources, people had found several mineral sources in Truskavets. And in 1827 small house for taking a bath and four small houses for tourists had been built in the city of Truskavets and this year is considered the year of the foundation of Truskavets as health resort-city. The most famous Truskavets mineral source is called "Naftusya", because it has a little bit of the taste of oil - нафта (nafta) in Ukrainian. There are also other mineral sources, named after human names "Mariya", "Sofiya", "Yuzya", "Edvard", "Bronislava", etc. All mineral sources have medical qualities and treat many diseases, mainly diseases of metabolism, gastrointestinal tract, gall bladder, pancreas, liver, blood and skin.
So when You want to relax and/or to have some treatment using mineral water, and You also wish to see the most eminent health resort-city in Ukraine, I sincerely recommend You to visit Truskavets!
