Forest Spring

Forest Spring is a natural mineral water source located in the northern section of Mariánské Lázně at approximately 640 meters elevation and used for healing purposes. The water from this source has long been valued for its therapeutic properties.

The spring contributed to the development of Mariánské Lázně as a spa resort in the 18th century after physician Josef Nehr recognized and promoted its healing properties. This early recognition laid the foundation for the place's later growth as a wellness destination.

The pavilion displays classical architecture surrounded by artistic works, including a Goethe sculpture with the Muse and three muse figures. These artworks shape the character of the place and make it a focal point for spa park visitors.

Visitors can reach the spring by following marked pathways through the spa park, which also connects to other mineral sources and recreational areas. The location offers easy access and connects well with other park attractions.

A memorial stone for writer Václav Beneš Třebízský, who spent his final days here in 1884, stands near the pavilion. This stone connects the place to Czech literary history.
