It was precisely the Pálffy family who invested efforts in establishing and promoting the local spa. In the 1930s, the shoe manufacturer Ján Baťa, perhaps known in the whole world, owned Bojnice.

Hydrotherapeutic procedures, electrotherapy, acupuncture, oxygen therapy, stays in salt cave are the methods currently offered.
