Miraculous spring Regina

Ukraine / Vinnytska / Murovani Kurylivtsi /

From time immemorial, in a grove near the slope of a high mountain, to the west from the village of Zhitniki in Vinnitsa region, a healing spring welled out from under the ground. Natives had been drinking and wondering at its miraculous properties, but an industrial bottling of "Regina" started in 1898, when an enterprising Polish nobleman Alexander Sabanskiy, who possessed the wood and the spring itself, got interested in the water.

Then a small house was built in which "Regina" was poured into tanks and brought to the station of Kotyuzhany. There it was poured into cisterns and sent mostly abroad. Soon "Regina" became popular in restaurants, hotels, cafes of Western Europe. After Alexander, the son of Mr. Sabanskiy, had examined the water in Warsaw, "Regina" was equated to the most famous mineral waters of that time.
