The Kochbrunnen in Wiesbaden is the most famous hot spring in city. It is a sodium chloride hot spring. Its name refers to the water temperature of about 66 °C. The spring in the Kochbrunnenplatz was first mentioned in 1366 as Bryeborn and 1536 as Syedenborn . The productivity is about 360 litres every minute. The fountain has well water when exiting, at a temperature of 66.1 °C, smells faintly of hydrogen sulphide and has a strong salty taste. It is clear, but becomes turbid yellowish after 24 hours exposed to the air. The main flow is directed to the processing plant in the Kaiser-Friedrich-Bad. From there it passes into the extensive thermal water system of the city. It is used both for medicinal purposes , as well as to heat the city hall. Kochbrunnenplatz and neighbouring Kranzplatz host some of the Wiesbaden Grand Hotels: the oldest hotel in Germany, the Schwarze Bock founded in 1486; the former Palace Hotel – it was the first ever with room phones – and the Hotel Rose, launched in September 2004 and which now hosts the Hessische Staatskanzlei.
