The Art Nouveau Colonnade as the Dominant Feature of the Spa
One of the most prominent buildings in Janske Lazne is the Art Nouveau spa colonnade. It was built in 1904 based on a design by the Viennese architect Brang. The construction was carried out by Johann Blaschek from Trutnov, and the technical solution was handled by Otto Fiedler, who diverted the waters of the Jansky stream into an underground tunnel. Thanks to this, the colonnade could be built on backfilled valley right in the center of the spa.
