Tourist Attractions

One of the most beautiful places in the Cheb District is Kladská Lake and its Hunting Lodge, located in one of the most significant locations within the Slavovský Forest Protected Landscape Area.

The famous Colonnade is one of the most instantly recognisable symbols of Mariánské Lázně.

The park at Prelát Spring has many activities, especially for children. Here you can have a barbecue or try the zip wire, climbing frames, water attractions and other fun things to do.

The Premonstratensian Monastery of Teplá was founded in 1193 by the Squire Hroznata, a Czech nobleman. It is arguably the most important monastery in West Bohemia.

As you walk through this part of the Slavkovský Forest, you may wonder what that rotten smell is. It comes from small rifts which host no life. Bleached skulls of field mice and forest birds, together with a myriad of insects grimly complete the picture.

Its beauty and serenity made this place a favourite with the Abbot Alfréd Clements of Teplá. A simple wooden bench stood here where the dignitary often used to sit. During his time as Abbot, Mariánské Lázně experienced the largest building boom of its early development (1888–1900).

An elegant one-storey tower used to stand here. It was erected in 1847 but the surrounding forests had overgrown it by 1879. Only a sign now gives any indication the buidling once stood here.

The name comes from a distinguished visitor to the town, the Bavarian Queen Karola. This is a lookout pavilion built in 1875 on the hillside between the Forest Spring and the local cemetery (above today's car park).

Loket is a very old town with a castle of the same name. Both rise above the valley of the Ohře River between Karlovy Vary and Sokolov.

Located near Ovesné Kladruby, the highest peak of the Tepelský flatland, a remnant of tertiary volcanic activity with significant geomorphological phenomena.

The Bečov Castle was founded in the 13th century by the Lords of Osek who owned the surrounding estates for almost 200 years.

The Anglican Church is the work of London architect William Burges and was built in 1879 by Friedrich Zickler.
