Seven Planets House

Seven Planets House is a baroque residential structure in Karlovy Vary featuring an ornately decorated facade with refined artistic details. The building displays the skilled craftsmanship typical of 18th-century baroque architecture.

The building was constructed in 1759 during the period when Karlovy Vary was emerging as a major European spa destination. Its creation coincided with the town's growing reputation for attracting wealthy visitors and nobility through its natural thermal waters.

The house gets its name from celestial symbolism that permeates its decorative scheme and design choices. This naming reflects the Baroque era's romantic view of nature and the cosmos.

The house sits near the town's thermal springs and classical colonnades in the spa district. Visitors can view this structure while exploring the surrounding historic spa area on foot.

The house is one of several buildings in town named after celestial bodies, a naming convention from an era when romance and curiosity about the cosmos shaped local design. This cosmic naming approach sets Karlovy Vary's architectural tradition apart from other European spa towns.
