Curative springs of Karlovy Vary
In Karlovy Vary, as many as 79 sources, 13 of them are developed and used for drinking courses. The composition of mineral water from various sources is close, but because of the different temperature and carbon dioxide content, it has different effects. Cooler sources usually have a mild laxative effect, while warmer ones have a softening effect, slowing the release of bile and gastric juice.
- Garden colonnade
- Snake source, 30 ° C. Opened in 2001, this source contains fewer minerals than other sources of the resort, but much more CO2. From the snake's mouth, it flows directly into the Garden Colonnade.
- Garden source, 47, 4 ° C. The source was discovered in the middle of the 19th century when building a foundation for a military sanatorium. It was originally called the "Imperial Source". Comes to the surface on the territory of the Military sanatorium near the colonnade. Access to the source is open every day from 6:00 to 18:30.
- Source of Freedom, 60 ° C. It was opened in the second half of the 19th century during the construction of Lazne III. His current name he received after the 2nd World War. It used to be called Kurortny, then Franz Josef I. Altanka with the source is located between Lazne III and Mill Colonnade.
- Mill Colonnade (1871-1881, Joseph Zitek): under the 132-meter colonnade supported by 124 Corinthian columns, there is an orchestra pit and five mineral springs.
- Rocky source, 53 ° C. Until 1845, flowed into the Teplu River, but after planning the terrain, its water was brought to the current Mill Colonnade.
- The source of Libuchy, 62 ° C. It was once called the source of Elizabethan roses, but originated by combining four smaller sources.
- Source of Prince Wenceslas I, 65 ° C. Water from this source was used to produce the Karlovy Vary medicinal salt. They say that at the end of the 18th century, with water and strength, he could measure with Vrzhidl. Prince Vaclav was taken to two vases.
- Source of Prince Wenceslas II, 58 ° C. Leaves before the colonnade, opposite the orchestra pit.
- The mill source, 56 ° C. Since the 16th century it has been used for sanatorium-and-spa treatment, earlier - mainly for the preparation of bathtubs. Water from a popular source was once possible to buy in almost all Czech pharmacies.
- Source of the Mermaid, 60 ° C. From the 16th century until 1945, it was called the New Spring. The water flowing out of it at one time was even more in demand than the water from the Mill source.
- The market colonnade (1883, Fellner and Helmer) - a wooden building built in the Swiss style, according to the plan was to cover hot springs only a few years. But after she stood over the sources of the Market and Charles IV for more than a hundred years, the city began to maintain it and complete reconstruction.
- Market source, 62 ° C. The source since the discovery (1838) several times disappeared and reappeared. A number of wells have been made, thanks to which water from the spring can now be prescribed by spa doctors.
- Source of Charles IV, 64 ° C. The healing properties of this source may have influenced the decision of Charles IV to build here his resort. The discovery of Karlovy Vary is depicted on a relief located above the source.
- The castle colonnade (1911-1913, Friedrich Oumann) is located directly above the Market Colonnade. It consists of two parts: the Colonnade of the Upper Spring and the Colonnade of the Lower Spring. In the interior spaces of the lower part is the relief of the Spirit of the springs. For many years the colonnade was closed, but after a comprehensive reconstruction, since 2001 it has again been opened to the public.
- Lower lock source (55 ° C) and Top lock source (50 ° C). In fact, we are talking about one source, the water from which is fed to two vases. But due to the fact that the Upper source is at a high altitude, its temperature and CO2 content differ. The lower castle source for public use is placed on the market square. The spring in the Castle Colonnade is intended only for clients of the Zamkovy Lazne.
- Vrzhidelni colonnade (1969-1975, Prof. Votruba). Geyser of hot mineral water from the 16th century covered many buildings: the Baroque structure, the Empire Colonnade, the cast-iron or temporary wooden colonnades. The next and until the last building surrounding the hot spring, refers to the late 60s of the 20th century. In the old part of the dungeon of this colonnade, a tourist route will be opened shortly, and an exposition of minerals is exposed at the top.
- Vrzhidlo, 72 ° C. The productivity of this geyser is about 2000 liters of mineral water per minute. Today it is the only source that supplies water for bathing. But Vrzhidlo is also used for drinking courses. In the colonnade there are a total of 5 tanks with source water at a temperature of 72, 57 and 41 ° C. Pillar of water from the spring can rise to a height of 12 m thanks to the pressure. The pavilion is open from 6:00 to 19:00.
