BUKOVIČKA BANJA

U srcu Šumadije, između planinskog venca Bukulja-Venčac, s jedne strane, i Orašačkog brda, s druge, izdužen pored rečice Kubršnice, nalazi se Aranđelovac.

Arandjelovac - Bukovicka Banja

U srcu ovog slikovitog gradića, na nadmorskoj visini od 270 m, smeštena je jedna od najlepših banja u Srbiji - Bukovička Banja. (Ime je dobila po selu Bukoviku u čijem ataru su otkriveni prvi izvori mineralne vode.)

Bukovicka Banja

Za izvore lekovite mineralne vode koja izbija na severnom rasedu podgorine Bukulje (696 m) znalo se od davnina – mnogo pre nego što nastade Aranđelovac.
Međutim, prve tačne podatke o Bukovičkoj Banji dao je dr M. P. Lindermajer, tada načelnik sanitetskog odeljenja Knjaževstva Srbije, u svojoj knjizi „Opis mineralnih voda“, objavljenoj 1856. Tako se saznaje da je još u vreme knjaza Miloša Obrenovića bila zapažena lekovitost vode pod Bukuljom i da je Dositej Obradović, srpski prosvetitelj iz XVIII veka -1811, kad mu je „ponestalo životne snage tražio leka i okrepljenja na izvorima blagotvorne bukovičke vode“.
Iz zapisa Milana đ. Milićevića iz 1876, saznaje se da su lekovitost mineralne vode i svežina vazduha sa Bukulje „učinili da Aranđelovac postane omiljeno mesto Miloševo, gde on provodi svoj odmor“. Ipak, tek sredinom sedme decenije XIX veka, zauzimanjem kneza Mihaila Obrenovića, koji je svojim sredstvima potpomogao izgradnju „Starog zdanja“ (1868), a potom i uređenjem izvora i otvaranjem „Parnog kupatila“ (1870) počelo je organizovano korišćenje mineralne vode i Bukovička Banja se naglo pročula.

Poznati austrijski arheolog i putopisac F. F. Kanic posećuje Aranđelovac 1809, i zapaža: „To je bilo prvo lečilište u zemlji koje je, zauzimanjem kneza Mihaila, urađeno po ugledu na zapadne banje. Za vreme sezone, banja je prepuna gostiju i tada je u varoši teško naći i najskromniju slobodnu sobu…“

Snažan uspon Bukovička Banja doživljava tridesetih godina dvadesetog veka pod upravom Štedionice Dunavske banovine kad se preduzimaju veliki istraživački radovi i gradi moderno toplo kupatilo, otvara bazen, duboka kaptaža izvora, podiže hotel „Šumadija“ (1936), preuređuje park…

Danas je Bukovička Banja jedna od najvažnijih, najkompletnijih i najposećenijih u Srbiji; u njoj godišnje boravi i do 40.000 gostiju. Lečilište ima jedan topli i četiri hladna mineralna vrela (đulara, Talpara, Knjaz Miloš, Pobeda).
Voda (12°-28° C) koja se svrstava u red najpoznatijih evropskih i svetskih alkalno-ugljenih kiselih, pomaže u lečenju mnogih oboljenja, a uz redovno korišćenje ima svojstva efikasne preventive.
Topla voda koristi se, u balneološke svrhe, za kupanje, hladna za piće. (Sa dubine od 1000 m – izvor kaptiran još 1903. ~ toči se i flašira (od 1864.), u zemlji i svetu poznata, mineralna voda „Knjaz Miloš“, dobitnik domaćih priznanja, ali i medalja u Parizu, i „Grand Prix“ na svetskim izložbama u Briselu (1906), u Londonu (1907)…

Lečenje se sprovodi u Zavodu za prevenciju, lečenje i rehabilitaciju oboljenja gastrointestinalnog i hepatobilijarnog trakta „Bukovička Banja“, od 1984. godine radi kao zdravstvena ustanova republičkog značaja.
Stacionarni deo lečilišta je u hotelu „Izvor“. U zgradi „Zatvoreno kupatilo“ su kade za podvodnu masažu i kabinet za akupunkturu. Tu se, uz upotrebu savremenih aparata, primenjuju raznovrsne medicinske procedure -balneo, fizio, elektro i kinezi terapije.

Popularni su i specijalizovani programi lečenja gojaznosti, odvikavanja od pušenja i programi preventivne rekreacije.

Bukovička Banja poznata je i po jedinstvenom Centru za oporavak dece od šećerne bolesti, u kojem najmlađi bolesnici od ove bolesti (do 18 godina) sistematski uče kako da normalno žive sa dijabetesom – šta treba da znaju o ovoj bolesti, kako da se hrane, koliko da upražnjavaju fizičke aktivnosti…

Poslednjih godina u Bukovičkoj Banji počelo je i korišćenje ilovače (gline) bogate mineralima korisnim za lečenje, kao i za spravlanje kozmetičkih preparata u RH Zavodu. (Okolina Aranđelovca najbogatija je glinom u Srbiji.)

Ponos i dragocenost Bukovićke Banje jesu voda i vazduh, ali – i park. Gotovo šumski bujna i raznovrsna vegetacija s lepo uređenim travnjacima, cvetnim alejama i fontanama, jedan od najlepših parkovau Srbiji, prostire se na više od 20 hektara.

Park u Bukovickoj Banji na preko 20 hektara

Po njemu je rasuto na stotine jedinstvenih „belih cvetova“, koji mu daju posebnu vrednost – skulpture domaćih i stranih umetnika urađene od venčačkog mermera u okviru tradicionalne manifestacije „Mermer i zvuci“ koja se od 1960. održava u Aranđelovcu.
U parku su i lepo uređeni prostori za zabavu dece, bazeni, sportski tereni, staze za šetnju…

Tako Bukovička Banja, pruža široke mogućnosti i za lečenje, i za odmor, rekreaciju i razonodu (klima je umereno kontinentalna, s nekim subplaninskim karakteristikama – prosečna godišnja temperatura jeste 11,2° C, a septembar je mesec sa najmanje kišnih dana).

U gradu ce od 4. jula do 19. septembra, u okviru „Kulturnog leta“, održavaju – na letnjoj pozornici ili u Dvorani kneževa (Staro zdanje) – operske, baletske, dramske i filmske predstave, književni susreti, likovne izložbe, koncerti ozbiljne, narodne, zabavne muzike i folklora.

Okolina Aranđelovca bogata je mestima za izlete i kulturno-istorijskim znamenitosgima. Osim gradskog Muzeja, u blizini banjskog parka je i pećina Risovača, posebna kulturna vrednosg – arheološko nalazište paleolitske starosti;
U Orašcu, mestu gde je 1804. doneta odluka o početku Prvog srpskog ustanka, podignut je spomen kompleks u znak sećanja na taj istorijski događaj.

Na 14 kilometara od Aranđelovca su Topola i Oplenac, sa spomen kompleksom vezanim za vreme Vožda Karađorđa i kraljevske dinastije Karađorđevića. Primamljivo izletište je i Bukulja, s bujnim šumama stoletnih stabala graba, bukve i hrasta, bistrim izvorima i potocima i atraktivnim Garaškim jezerom – privlačnim za ribolovce i pogodnim za vožnju kajakom, jedrenje i ronjenje.

Na obroncima Venčaca je selo Banja, poznato po vinogradima i jednom od najstarijih zadružnih podruma vina; u Raniloviću (14 km) nalazi se Lukićev zapis -hrast-spomenik izuzetnog značaja…

The town of Arandjelovac stretches along the small River Kubrsnjica, in the very heart of Sumadija region, between the mountain line of Mounts Bukulja-Vencac on one side and the hill of Orasac on the other.

In the very centre of this picturesque town, at the altitude of 270 m, lies one of the most beautiful spas in Serbia – Bukovicka Spa. (it was named by the village of Bukovik within the boundaries of which the first mineral springs had been discovered.)

Bukovicka Spa - Arandjelovac Serbia

The springs of curative waters that surge out of the northern cleft of Mt. Bukulja (696 m) slopes, have been known since ancient times – much earlier than the town of Arandjelovac was established. However, the first reliable data on Bukovicna Spa were given by M.P. Lindermeier, then Superintendent of the Sanitary Department of the Princedom of Serbia, in his book „The Description of Mineral Waters of Serbia“, published in 1856. It can be learned from the book that in the time of Prince Milos Obrenovic, the curative capacities of the waters beneath Bukulja were noticed.
Dositej Obradovic, the Serbian 18th-century educator, wrote in 1811 that „when the vigor has left the body, 1 went to look for cure and refreshment at the springs of the beneficial Bukovik waters“.

We can find from the notes of Milan Dj. Milicevic, written down in 1876, that the curative properties of the mineral waters and the freshness of the air coming from Bukulja „have made Arandjelovac a favourite place of Prince Milos, where he spends his holidays“. However, it was not before the 7th decade of the 19th century that organized usage of the mineral water started, with the support from Prince Mihailo Obrenovic who financed building of Staro Zdanje (the Old Edifice) in 1868, followed by redesigning of the springs and opening of the „Steam Bath“ in 1870, when the Spa instantly became famous.
The renowned Austrian archeologist and travel writer F.F. Kanitz visited Arandjelovac in 1898 and wrote: That was the first sanatorium in the country, which, thanks to Prince Mihailo, was landscaped in the likeness of the western world spas. In the season, the Spa is full of guests so that it is difficult to find even the simplest room in the town…“.

The Bukovicka Spa had another period of speedy development in the thirties of the 20th century when it was managed by the Danube Region Savings Bank. Serious research works were undertaken at that time and a modern bath building was built, a pool opened, deep capturing of the springs made, „Sumadija1 Hotel built (1936), and Park renovated…

Bukovicka Spa

Today, Bukovicka Spa is one of the most important, most complete and most frequented Spas in Serbia, with up to 40,000 guests visiting it. The sanatorium has one hot and four cold mineral wells (Djulara, Talpara, Knjaz Milos, Pobeda).
This water (12° – 18° C) is ranked among the best known alkaline-carbonated acidic waters in Europe and the world. It supports healing of numerous diseases, while regular consuming provides for efficient preventive effects.

For balneologic purposes, the hot water is used by bathing, and the cold one by drinking. (Water is exploited from the depth of 1000 m, from the well secured as early as 1903 – where the internationally known „Knjaz Milos mineral water has been tapped and bottled (since 1864) – the winner of domestic awards as well as he awards in Paris and „Grand Prix“ at the World Exhibitions in Brussels (1906), in London (1907)…

Medical treatment has been conducted in „Bukovicka Banja“ Institute for prevention, treating and rehabilitation of gastrointestinal and hepato-biliary tracts, which has operated as an institution of importance for Serbia since 1984. The dispensary portion of the sanatorium is situated in the „Izvor“ Hotel. Bath tubs for underwater massage and acupuncture cabinet are located in the closed-bath building. Various medical procedures are applied there, such as balneo, physio, electro and kinesi therapies. The specialized programmes have become very popular, including those for curing obesity, tobacco addiction and those of preventive recreation.

Bukovicka Spa is known by its unique Centre for Recuperation of children suffering from blood sugar, where little patients (up to 18 years old) are systematically taught how to live normally with diabetes – becoming familiar with the disease, learning adequate nutrition methods, physical activities…

Using of clay, rich with health aiding minerals has been initiated lately in this Spa where cosmetic preparations are made out of it in the Institute.

The Spa is proud of its waters and the air, but of its park as well. The park vegetation, covering an area of 20 ha, opulent like a forest and rich with various trees, with nicely landscaped lawns, flower beds and fountains, is one of the most beautiful parks in Serbia.

Bukovicka Spa Park

It is streaked with hundreds of „white flowers“ that add special value to the park, the flowers being the white sculptures made from the marble taken from Vencac quarries. The sculptures have been made in the course of the traditional „Marble and Sound“ cultural event, taking place in Arandjelovac since 1960.
There are nicely arranged areas for children’s entertainment, as well as pools, sports fields, paths for walking… Thus, Bukovicka Spa offers a wide variety of possibilities for medical treatment, rest, recreation and entertainment. (The climate is moderately continental, with some sub-mountain characteristics, with an average annual temperature of 11.2° C. September is the month with least rainy days.)

From July 4th till September 19th, within the „Cultural Summer“ festivity, various performances are held either in the outdoor stage or in the Hall of Princes (in „Staro Zdanje“ Hotel), with opera, ballet, drama and cinema performances, as well as literary meetings, fine art exhibitions, concerts of classical, folk and pop music and folklore.

In the vicinity of Arandjelovac, there are numerous sites suitable for picnic and those of cultural and historic importance. Besides the Town Museum, there is also Risovaca Give in the vicinity of the park. It is of unique cultural value – the archeological site of Paleolith.
In Orasac, the village where the First Serbian Insurrection against Turkish rule was initiated, a monument has been raised in the memory of this event.
Topola and Oplenac are 14 Ion away from Arandjelovac, with a complex of monuments related to the time of Vozd (Leader) Karadjordje and the royal dynasty of the Karadjordjevics.
Bukulja is an attractive picnic site, with its thick forests of a hundred-year old trees of hornbeam, birch and oak, and clear springs and streams and picturesque Garasko Lake that attracts fishermen and are suitable for kayak rowing, sailing and diving.
The village of Banja is situated on the slopes of Mount Vencac. The village is known for its vineyards and one of the oldest collective wine cellars.
In Ranilovici (141cm), there is an exquisite ancient monument of an oak tree with a religious script in it – the Lukic’s Register…
