The resort town is not deprived of curious cultural institutions. It is worth visiting the Pharmacy Museum and the Mail Museum, which over the years has managed to collect excellent collections of exhibits. Important historical facilities of the middle Ages are the Turkish baths, which have not ceased to function for several hundred years.
