MARIÁNSKÉ LÁZNĚ – HISTORY

The healing effects of the springs in the area around what is now Mariánské Lázně were known as far back as the Middle Ages. Mariánské Lázně came into being as a separate town in 1812. On 6 November 1818 Mariánské Lázně was declared a “public spa”. From 1817-1823 gardener Václav Skalník, architect Jiří Fischer and builder Anton Thurner created, with financial assistance from the monastery in the nearby town of Teplá, an attractive park complex with houses in the Classicist and Empire styles, gazebos, pavilions and colonnades. In 1872 Mariánské Lázně was connected to the cities of Cheb, Vienna and Prague via Pilsen, and in 1898 with Karlovy Vary. At this time the town hosted many illustrious guests, including Gustav Mahler, Friedrich Nietzsche, Franz Kafka, Rudyard Kipling, Mark Twain, Thomas Alva Edison, Pierre de Coubertin, King Edward VII of Great Britain and Ireland and Emperor Franz Joseph I.

The Singing Fountain

The Singing Fountain is one of the dominant features of Mariánské Lázně. It plays daily at every odd hour between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., and at 9 p.m. and 10 p.m. with a projection and a colourful light show. The gala opening of the season takes place at 9 p.m. on 30 April every year, with operation ending at the end of October or start of November. The Singing Fountain is formed of a circular basin with a diameter of eighteen metres and twelve-part stone sculpture in the form of a stylised flower, the central part of which is made from polished steel. The fountain as a whole is managed by computer, allowing the formation of interesting spray combinations and coloured lighting.
