匆匆浪漫 中歐(5/6) —— 慢生活,快樂布拉格


如果說 布拉格 城市裡的建築物讓人流連忘返,那麼KV小鎮的每一幢樓都是藝術品。
走到它們跟前,你很想駐足仔細品味每一座樓房的顏色、結構、雕塑,很想去想象房子里的主人或客人嫻靜地端杯咖啡望向窗外陽光明媚的花園的情景。






那麼,景點來了:其實與其說打卡景點,不如說是隨意的溜達著就碰到一些“有名”的建築:
ANGLICAN CHURCH OF SAINT LUCAS(我譯:聖 盧卡 斯國教會教堂)
有興趣的話可以讀英文瞭解下概況。拍這照片時雖然我們知道這是座教堂,只是覺得建築挺別緻的(當然,這裡的每一座建築都很別緻),回來寫游記時才知道這也是一處“景點”,而且歷史還很悠久。
Pseudo-Gothic two-aisle church
The Pseudo-Gothic Anglican Church of Saint Lucas was constructed on a terrace on Zámecký vrch (Castle Hill) with the financial support of English spa guests by local builder Josef Slowak according to the design of Leipzig building councillor Dr. Oskar Mothes between the years 1876 and 1877. The foundation stone was laid in 1876. The new church was consecrated on 24 June 1877.
It replaced the no longer satisfactory Anglican church in Zahradní údolí (Garden Valley). The design was inspired by the romantic perception of the English Pseudo-Gothic style, which uses rough brickwork and adds an exotic touch to the whole structure. The two-aisle sacral structure has a ground plan in the shape of a Latin cross with monumental support pillars and its dome above the aisle intersection is dominated by an oblique wooden prismatic tower with a gallery. Renovation works were carried out in 1909 and 1910. The Church of St. Lucas is in the possession of the Evangelic Methodist Church. In these days there is Wax Museum in the Church.

隨意走,隨意拍。




Stone colonnade built in Pseudo-Renaissance style
The first wooden promenade hall was built over Nový pramen (New Spring) next to the former Mill Bath between the years 1792 and 1793.
It was the first structure of its kind in Karlovy Vary that allowed the spa guests to enjoy the waters of the springs also in unfavourable weather. In the early 19th century, the New Spring thus became more popular and more sought after than the remaining springs in Karlovy Vary. In 1811, the original wooden structure was replaced by the New Spring Colonnade, which was constructed also from wood by Dresden builder Johann August Giessel in Empire style.
The present-day Mill Colonnade was built in Pseudo-Renaissance style according to the design of distinguished Czech architect Josef Zítek between the years 1871 and 1881. The grand opening of the colonnade took place on 5 June 1881 at the occasion of the start of the spa season. During 1891 and 1892, a part of Bernardova skála (Bernard's Rock) was cut and removed and a new north pavilion over the seep of the Rock Spring was added to the colonnade. The largest colonnade in Karlovy Vary houses the seeps of five mineral springs. The attic gable is decorated with 12 sandstone allegorical statues representing the months of the year by sculptors Alfred Schreiber and Karl Wilfert. The orchestra pit is adorned with allegorical reliefs by local sculptor Václav Lokvenc.
Inside the largest colonnade in Karlovy Vary, you may find the seeps of five mineral springs: the Mill Spring, the Rusalka Spring, the Prince Wenceslas Spring, the Libuše Spring, and the Rock Spring.


The seep of the mineral spring located in the historical Tržiště (Market) below Zámecká věž (Castle Tower), which is known as the Charles IV Spring, was originally called Žrout (Glutton) and according to legend, Emperor Charles IV himself healed is ailing limbs with its waters. The oldest baths in Karlovy Vary once stood on this site. The spring seeps were originally protected by a simple columnar arbour and a short promenade hall.
The current richly carved wooden colonnade was built in Swiss style on the site of the old Town Hall according to the design of famous Viennese architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer between the years 1882 and 1879. The own construction of the colonnade, intended as a temporary structure, was commissioned to master carpenter Oesterreicher from Vienna. During 1904 and 1905, the colonnade was prolonged to cover the seep of the Market Spring based on the design of the Director of the Municipal Building Office, Franz Drobny.
Inside the Market Colonnade, you may find the seeps of three mineral springs: the Charles IV Spring, the Lower Castle Spring, and the Market Spring.

Originally, the seep of the Hot Spring was covered by light structures and pavilions that could be easily replaced after repeated bursts and unexpected therm irruptions. The spacious Baroque Vřídelní sál (Hot Spring Hall) built in its vicinity in 1774 reflected the application of the curative methods of Dr. David Becher who laid great emphasis on drinking the healing waters directly at the source. The very first uniform architectonic concept of the area surrounding the Hot Spring was embodied by the Empire Hot Spring Colonnade built according to the design of Josef Esch in 1826.
It was replaced by the new cast-iron Hot Spring Colonnade constructed in Pseudo-Renaissance style according to the design of Viennese architects Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer between the years 1878 and 1879. Unfortunately, the corroded colonnade had to be disassembled in 1939 and replaced by a temporary wooden structure for the next 27 years. In 1975, the new modern glass and reinforced concrete colonnade was built in Functionalistic style according to the design of architect Jaroslav Otruba.
The geyser of the Hot Spring is in a separate pavilion and it gushes to a height of almost 12 metres. The glass-prism dome arching over the seep of the Hot Spring is the work of sculptor Jan Fišer and symbolises the beating heart of the spa town. The spacious promenade hall houses five additional spring bowls, marked A, B, and C, in which thermal water is cooled to a temperature of 50 and 30°C in order to be suitable for the drinking cure. You may also find souvenir stands and an exhibition area at the gallery of the promenade hall.



溫泉館出來後是一座很大的溫泉。我們在這裡“嬉戲”了一會兒,還引起國人旅行團的“效仿”。
