Heinrich Arnold Thaulow (10 June 1808 – 19 August 1894) was a physician known for the introduction of balneotherapy in Norway. [1][2] Thaulow founded Sandefjord Spa in Sandefjord in 1837. He was Sandefjord's first physician.[3][4][5] He also made the first donation to the city in 1875, when the Thaulow fountain was donated to the city. The fountain is located at Christopher Hvidts Plass in the city center of Sandefjord.[6]
