Archeological excavations are evidence that healing water and thermal/mineral springs were used since the ancient civilizations and that such watering places were well populated. From the antique cult of health and body to the medieval age and the Turkish rule in Serbia mineral and thermal-mineral waters were used for healing, recreation and for house-heating. Yet, it was in modern Serbia that the conservation of the natural wealth and diversity has been gradually founded on an elaborated and unified system-related legislation that clearly defines the principles, restricted competences and powers, and efficient measures and terms. The Environment Act (2004, 2009) and the Law on Nature Protection (2009) recognize mineral waters, thermal springs and mineral mud as natural resources and set forth the principles, measures and terms of their protection. Then also the assessment of environmental impacts became mandatory, including the impact on medicinal waters as an element of the environment, for their continuous conservation and sustainable utilization.
