Continental Spa House, Cultural monument in Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic.
Continental Spa House is a four-story building in Karlovy Vary that contains mineral water bathing facilities and therapeutic treatment rooms located near the Tepla River. The facility was designed for spa guests seeking traditional cure methods using thermal and mineral water treatments.
The building was constructed in 1889 during the height of the resort when European nobility visited Karlovy Vary for health treatments. This period marked a turning point in the town's growth as an international health destination.
The building remains a working center where visitors experience the traditional Czech spa culture that has developed over time. You can observe guests from around the world using the historic bathing and drinking cure practices that form part of the town's daily routine.
The building is accessible through the main entrance on Sadova Street, with reception staff speaking multiple languages. Visitors should bring comfortable clothing and be prepared for treatments that may involve extended time in water.
The mineral water here originates from specific thermal springs and contains high levels of dissolved minerals that give it distinctive properties. This natural composition makes treatments here notably different from other European spas.
