After a quiet period during the First World War, a new spa centre designed by architect Paul Wigreux was opened in 1926. In the 1930s, the hotels were occupied not by visitors interested in the waters but by emigres from Nazi Germany including the pianist Arthur Rubinstein. During the Second World War, well-to-do Nazis enjoyed relaxing at "Staatsbad-Mondorf", far away from the bombing and fighting. After the war, Mondorf hosted 59 members of the Nazi elite as they awaited trial at Nuremberg while the allies made the necessary preparations at the Palace Hotel, code-named Camp Ashcan.
