Tourist Attractions

You won't find a single place in the entire Slavkovský Forest that suffers a lack of moisture. Often in times when wandering through the woods you might find yourself endlessly jumping over creeks and little streams as well as extensive wetlands.

Hauenštejn Castle was founded by the Czech King in the second half of the 13th century and was generously enlarged and remodeled in the neo-Gothic style by the Buquoys family during the 19th century.

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.

Pístov Meadow is formed by a small meadow enclave on the edge of the forest in a slightly kerfed valley 1 km southeast of Pístov.

The House of Nature is the Slavkovský Forest visitor centre located in the village of Kladska. The centre focuses on the natural and cultural highlights of Slavkovsky Forest Protected Landscape Area. This is a joint project between the State Forest Agency and the Nature Conservation Agency of the Czech Republic.

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).

This tower was named after Hamelika Hill on which it stands.

The director of the local theatre Julius Laska had this chapel built in 1909 in memory of his mother. It is a small, pretty, neo-Gothic building set against a forest backdrop.

In the Town Museum, you can every month look forward to a new exhibition.

This protected spruce rises northwest of Marianske Lazne between "Svobody" alley  and "Smetana" alley. The spruce is estimated to be 200 years old and is a truly majestic tree - the trunk circumference is 450cm and it is 39 m tall. It first emerged from the ground around 1818 when Mariánské Lázně was first declared a public spa. In March 2017 strong wind got the better of the spruce which fell. A fallen tree remains protected, so it can still be admired where it lies.

The first known theatre performance in Mariánské Lázně was played in a provisional wooden pavilion in the open air, said to be performed on 14th June in 1820. In 1868 F. Zickler built the original theatre building in the Neo-Renaissance style and a festive opening took place on 8th August.

The cross stands above the town's market hall. This is an authentic historic attraction visited by many prominent personalities who were eager to take in the view of the valley that Mariánské Lázně occupies..
