Františkovy Lázně is the third most important health resort in the Czech Republic, located 180 km from Prague near the border with Germany. Having acquired a powerful tourist infrastructure and a lot of modern medical centers, he managed to amazingly preserve the unique atmosphere of the beginning of the 20th century: neoclassicism buildings are buried here in the greenery of parks. In addition, the resort is famous for its rich cultural traditions: Beethoven, Goethe, Schiller rested here at different times. The symbol of Františkovy Lázně is the bronze sculpture of the boy Františka, located in the historical center of the city.
