Brückenan, a small town of Bavaria, on the Sinn, 17 miles NW. of Kissingen. The baths of Brückenan are picturesquely situated in the valley of the Sinn, about 2 miles from the town. The three warm springs are chiefly of use in nervous affections and cutaneous diseases. The grounds are tastefully laid out in gardens, and charming walks traverse the surrounding woods. The number of inhabitants (1549) is surpassed by that of visitors.
