    The Castle Fountain was first discovered in 1769 under the Castle Tower in the historic center of Karlovy Vary. The first pavilion over the spring was built in 1797. In 1830, the arbor was completed with a new wooden colonnade designed by architect Josef Esch. Between 1910 and 1912, the Karlovy Vary master builder Friedrich Seitz built a new Art Nouveau colonnade designed by Viennese architect Johann Friedrich Ohmann. The colonnade consists of three separate units; the Lower Castle Fountain Colonnade, the Sunbathing Area and the Upper Castle Fountain Colonnade. It was intended to connect the space above the Castle Fountain with the Market Colonnade and create a single promenade unit.

      Perfect to visit!
      In the 14th century Czech King Charles IV was often riding his horse around the Krušné (Ore) Mountains and the Slavkov Forest in Western Bohemia. Thanks to a chance his retinue one time apparently discovered the hot spring, to which the emperor soon attributed its curative power. He convinced himself about it with his own skin. Using the water from the spring he was able to heal his injured leg. According to a legend he ordered to build a town around the miraculous spring, which because of its springs still thrives and enjoys the fame far beyond the borders of our country.

        Just to fully commit. Filigree woodwork for the current sources.
