Concert Hall in Karlovy Vary / Petr Hajek Architekti
Briefly

The Imperial Spa, constructed in 1895, is an architectural and technological marvel that once accommodated thousands through innovative spa processes. However, after a period of disrepair, a plan was initiated to repurpose the spa into a cultural center. Significant renovations will focus on transforming the central atrium—historically a functional machine room—into a concert and multifunctional hall. This blend of historical preservation and modern use aims to reinstate the building’s vibrant role in the community while introducing advanced audiovisual technologies.
The renovation of the Imperial Spa, originally designed to leverage innovative mechanical technologies, is now being repurposed to serve cultural and community purposes, revitalizing its historical role.
Architects utilized original structures while integrating advanced technologies to ensure the renovated Imperial Spa provides a unique cultural venue, preserving its storied past while looking towards the future.
