the 1930s The shape it still hasPodoba, ktorú má dodnes

In the Czechoslovak republic the spa was rebuilt again, and it is the work of the 1930s — new bath buildings and a hotel — that gave Rajecké Teplice the shape a visitor sees today: a park, a lake with a fountain, and the bath houses gathered round them. Interwar Czechoslovakia was a good time to be a Slovak spa. There was a railway, a growing middle class and a public sickness-insurance system, and a patient could be in this valley the same day they left Prague.V československej republike kúpele znova prestavali a práve práce z 30. rokov — nové kúpeľné budovy a hotel — dali Rajeckým Tepliciam podobu, akú návštevník vidí dodnes: park, jazero s fontánou a kúpeľné domy okolo nich. Medzivojnové Československo bolo pre slovenské kúpele dobrým časom. Bola tu železnica, rástla stredná vrstva, existovalo verejné nemocenské poistenie — a pacient mohol byť v tejto doline v ten istý deň, ako vyrazil z Prahy.
