Hadí lázně, Spa building in Teplice, Czech Republic
Hadí lázně is a classical spa building in the Šanov district of Teplice with a facade running along Snake Street. The structure displays typical architectural features from its original period and remains registered as a protected cultural monument.
The building was constructed in 1796 in classical style and underwent reconstruction between 1838 and 1839. This renovation reinforced its architectural elements while maintaining its role as a bathing facility.
The name references a thermal spring depression where snakes once congregated near this location.
The building is currently closed to visitors and no longer operates as a functioning spa. Local information should be checked before visiting, as restoration discussions remain ongoing.
The structure was declared a cultural monument in 1958 and retained this status despite a petition to remove it in 2019. The Ministry of Culture decided to keep the protective designation in place.
