Tourist Attractions

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.

Park Boheminium is an educational and leisure area on the eastern edge of Mariánské Lázně featuring detailed models (1:25 scale) of the most important historical buildings and technical monuments in the Czech Republic.

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 the Forest Spring is located in the northern part of the town off Třebízského street. Here you'll find a pavilion containing the Forest Spring, the Goethe and Muse sculpture by German sculptor Heindrich Drake, a memorial stone for the writer Vaclav Václav Beneš Třebízský and a sculpture of three muses by O. Zoubek. Nearby you'll also find a music pavilion used in summer as a cafe and a venue for musical performances.

"Skalnikovy sady" park dominates the town and is one of the most popular among tourists. It was created at the end of the 19th century at the same time as the town.

Less than three kilometres from the centre of Mariánské Lázně lies a very precious location in the Slavkovský Forest, the source of the Teplá River.

This dominant lookout point is located on the top of Žižka Hill. The location was named in honour of Prussian King Friedrich Wilhelm IV who laid the foundation stone of the altar in the town's Evangelical Church in June 1857.

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).

The former Benedictine Monastery of Kladruby, an important historical site, looms over the valley of the Úhlavka River.

The first written record of Planá dates back to 1251. The town was founded on an important trade route leading from Nuremberg to Cheb and further on into Bohemia.
