Mariánské Lázně

Mariánské Lázně encompasses more than 100 mineral springs throughout its territory, with 53 actively used for therapeutic treatments and wellness purposes.

The settlement, first mentioned in 1273 as Úšovice village, transformed into a renowned spa destination after physician Josef Nehr promoted its springs from 1779 to 1820.

The town received numerous European nobles and artists, including Edward VII, Franz Joseph I, Richard Wagner, and Frédéric Chopin during its 19th-century golden age.

The mineral springs maintain a constant temperature between 7 and 10 degrees Celsius, offering treatments for metabolic disorders and respiratory conditions.

The town exports 1 million bottles of mineral water annually, with the Cross Spring water sold under the name 'sal teplensis' for its specific properties.
