This nomination is the joint effort between the town of Mariánské Lázně and the ENSANA Spa company which recently led to the spa being awarded much coveted climatic spa status. Two centuries since this beautiful spa town was established, this cooperation continues the work of the city fathers, adding a new natural source – the local climate – to our existing resources. Mariánské Lázně is one of the oldest spas in the Czech Republic to utilise natural healing resources, namely mineral water, natural CO² gas and peat. Climatic spa status will inevitably lead to an expansion of what Mariánské Lázně can offer in the way of spa treatments. The task of acquiring such status was launched back in 2021 and involved gathering expert opinion on the state of the environment in the spa, evaluating the climate and bioclimate in and around Mariánské Lázně and gaining expert advice on the suitability of local climatic conditions for therapeutic purposes. In June 2023, the Czech Health Ministry made the decision to grant the town climatic spa status. Mariánské Lázně will thus acquire a wider range of indications.
Climatic spa status will contribute significantly to the long-term sustainability of the spa industry in Mariánské Lázně, as well as ensuring the protection of our natural environment going forward, including the climate. The installation of a meteorological station and an emissions monitoring station of the highest standard is part and parcel of the climate spa statute. In addition to the permanent monitoring of air quality and the weather, the data will also be used to recommend outdoor exercise programmes on specific routes and at given altitudes.
Climatic spa status means various interested parties in Mariánské Lázně will work together and this will go a long way to solving a range of local issues such air cleanliness, heating policy, traffic and transport, the maintenance of parks and roads, forest matters, water management, spa walking trails, water treatment and much more besides. Climatic spa status provides a guarantee that the natural environment and unique bioclimatic conditions that prevail in Mariánské Lázně will be preserved for generations to come.
