The Sauvenière spring is the oldest and was the most visited in Spa. According to legend it was discovered by St Remaclus, who left the print of his sandal in the stone, and it was a place of pilgrimage for newlyweds because of its supposed powers against infertility. Beside it is the Groesbeek spring. Access is free, in the open air, at Rue de la Sauvenière 116, and it is the starting point of several walks, among them the famous promenade d'Orléans, named after a duchess.
