The purpose of the paper is to evaluate the impact of historical events on the visit rate of the Bardejov Spa in various periods of its development (in the years 1814-2016). It gives a comprehensive view of the spa tourism in the Bardejov Spa. The paper summarises the history of the spa, its natural sources, treatment and indications. The conducted regression analysis has shown that an increase in the number of visitors was influenced by reconstruction, construction, development of indications for treatment and visits by well-known historical figures, as shown by the offsetting regression line with an increasing value of the year variable and the visit rate variable.
