Emperor Franz Joseph I Municipal Spa

The decision was taken to build the municipal spa in 1898, to mark the 50th anniversary of the reign of Emperor Franz Joseph, as we can see from the commemorative plaque on the facade. The building was designed by Viennese architect Petr Paul Brang, who also designed the spa in Ústí nad Labem and the colonnade in Janské Lázně. Our municipal spa, built in 1901-1902, was mostly an attempt to improve hygiene, as when it was constructed it was rare for homes to have bathrooms. 

Spa Gallery

The spa was converted into a gallery in 2011-2013, and was opened in 2014. The refurbishment of the Spa Gallery won it the Architects’ Grand Prix in 2013. When you get to the Regional Gallery, don’t be put off by the large “Lázně” (“Spa”) sign. This is a reference to what the building was formerly used for and the gallery not only proudly flaunts its past, but even makes witty use of it in its collections.
