Czech Spas - Healing Power of Nature
The healing energy that springs from the heart of Europe
Relax like an aristocrat or world-famous movie star
Spas have always been a popular destination for Europe‘s cream of the crop. Famous aristocrats, philosophers and well-known artists enjoyed the comfort, rich social life and countless romances here. Goethe met his beloved Ulrika for the first time here, the famous Beethoven composed the 9th Symphony here, and the Russian Tsar Alexander or the Austrian Empress Sisi came here regularly to draw new energy. And the tradition continues! Today, celebrities heading to the Karlovy VaryInternational Film Festivalsecure the annual excitement. In recent years, for example, Johnny Depp, Robert Pattinson or Uma Thurman have all visited here. We'll leave it up to you to write your own story here.
