    Towards the end of 1900, the management of the beautification association decided to create allegorical terracotta sculptures in connection with the planned naming of the park path to the colonnade of the salt and meadow spring “Archduchess Isabella Promenade” (after the Austrian Archduchess and Princess of Teschen Isabella von Croÿ). to get. The sculptures came from a series production by the Dresden branch of Villeroy & Boch.

    The figures standing on stone pedestals are allegories for sculpture, painting, poetry and tragedy. Before 1912 a terracotta sculpture of the hunter Aktaion was added.

      The spa town of Františkovy Lázně was fortunate to retain many buildings and houses from the 18th and 19th centuries. Therefore, during walks along the Isabella promenade with green avenues decorated with statues and fountains, you can feel like you are traveling back in time. In addition, the historical monuments in the spa town of Františkovy Lázně cannot be overlooked, they are everywhere. A symbol of the city is a statue of a boy with a fish - which grants wishes.
