The thermal spring has been in function from the ancient-Roman time, and was mentioned then as ¨Teplitz bey Stubisza¨, in 1209 during the time of Andrija Arpadpvic. Stubicke Toplice experienced their flourishing at the end of the 18th and the beginning of the 19th centuries. It can be estimated from La-langue's work about healing waters published in 1777, when exactly ¨Vojkffijev krop prostrani¨ emerged. That is why it was emphasized on the emblem of the hospital in 1776, as the beginning of continuous balnaeological tradition in Stubicke Toplice. The present-day health resort was established in 1811, when the bishop of Zagreb Maksimilijan Vrhovac made a bath-house with an indoor swimming pool, after him named ¨Maksimilianeum¨, a bath, dancing and social life halls and a dining-room.
