The appearance of new healing springs in Hornhausen, Saxony, in the spring of 1646 became an event of European significance. Within a few weeks, the insignificant village was attracting crowds of pilgrims of various nationalities and social strata. This article introduces this phenomenon in the context of different modes of interpretation of healing springs. The fact that “Lutheran Lourdes” captured the attention of not only Protestants but also of Catholic aristocrats is documented by references to Hornhausen in a diary written by cardinal Ernst Adalbert of Harrach in Prague. Even the most famous Bohemian naturalist and physician of the 17th century, Jan Marek Marci of Kronland, turned his attention to Saxon springs and described the experience and impressions of his stay in Hornhausen in a letter to an unknown addressee. In addition to a paraphrase of the key passages of these two sources and their comparison with other contemporary textual and visual material, this study includes a critical edition of Marci’s letter and a few notes on its textual history.
