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.

Visitors can enjoy not only artworks but also film screenings dedicated to the life and work of the exhibiting artists. The combination of 19th-century architecture with modern art creates a unique atmosphere for an unforgettable cultural experience. The gallery’s curator is Alena Mrovcová.

Opening hours: daily 2:00–5:00 p.m.
