Healing Mineral Springs

Františkovy Lázně’s therapeutic heritage centers on these six distinct mineral springs, each housed in historicist pavilions and colonnades. These carbonated waters vary significantly in chemical composition, ranging from the high iron content of the Ferrous Spring to the potent Glauber’s salt concentrations in Glauber I. Established between the late 18th and early 20th centuries, these natural sources are used primarily for traditional drinking cures to treat digestive, respiratory, and circulatory conditions.
