Tourist Attractions

The Central Park is situated in the heart of the city between Masarykova and Hlavni Streets. Here you’ll find a memorial to the Jewish residents of the city who had to flee or were deported before and during World War II. The memorial was unveiled in 2010 on the anniversary of the so-called "Kristallnacht", when the Nazis destroyed synagogues and Jewish buildings in many towns, including Mariánské Lázně. A sculpture called "Four Seasons" by Z. Šimek also adorns the space.

The first known theatre performance in Mariánské Lázně was played in a provisional wooden pavilion in the open air, said to be performed on 14th June in 1820. In 1868 F. Zickler built the original theatre building in the Neo-Renaissance style and a festive opening took place on 8th August.

This steel tower situated on the hill near the village of Drmoul, was opened on November 15 in 2008.
