Von Dr. Aladár Földvári und Dr. Ferenc Papp. Entlang des Donau-Ufers bei dem östlichen Fusse des GellértBerges steigen ungefasste Thermalquellenflüchtlinge empor, die schon von F. Schafarzik ausführlich beschrieben wurden. Sie wurden neuerdings beobachtet: die Temperatur erreichte bei der südlichen Quelle 37.9° C, bei der nördlichen 43.2° C.
