Krynica-Zdrój [krɘˈɲit͡sa ˈzdrui̯] (until 31 December 2001 Krynica, Lemko Rusyn: Крениця, Yiddish: קרעניץ) is a town in Nowy Sącz County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship, southern Poland. It is inhabited by over eleven thousand people. It is the biggest spa town in Poland often called the Pearl of Polish Spas; and a popular tourist and winter sports destination situated in the heart of the Beskids mountain range. Krynica was first recorded in official documents in 1547 and was granted town rights in 1889. In the 17th century, mineral waters were discovered in the area. In 1856, the town began rapidly developing into a health resort largely thanks to the activities of Józef Dietl, a Jagiellonian University professor considered the "father of Polish balneology".
