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..

A small, intimate town nestled on the edge of a beautiful forested area, Lázně Kynžvart was founded in 1214 and boasts an impressive past.

This is a rock promontory above the Ohře River valley on the peak of Šemnické Rocks (644 m high) above the village of Šemnice.

'Goethe's Retreat' is a sandstone obelisk and two stone resting places on the side of Hamelika Hill. Goethe used to sit here on a bench, sometimes with Ulrika von Levetzow, or alone, spending many hours in contemplation here. The obelisk was built in August 1848 to recall Goethe's three sojourns in Mariánské Lázně between 1821 and 1823.

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).

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