Mariánské Lázně is one of the three principal spa towns of the West Bohemian Spa Triangle, set in a wooded valley and developed primarily in the 19th century as a resort for European royalty and intellectual society. The colonnades — cast-iron and neo-baroque structures sheltering mineral springs dispensed in ceramic cups — form the social and architectural centre of the town. Goethe, Chopin, and Franz Josef I are among the historical visitors documented in the town's cure-culture archive.
