Lázně Kynžvart is famous for its sanatorium, which is designed for children with nonspecific respiratory disorders.
Lázně Kynžvart consists of two municipal parts (in brackets population according to the 2021 census):[2] Lázně Kynžvart is located about 19 kilometres (12 mi) southeast of Cheb and 29 kilometres (18 mi) southwest of Karlovy Vary.
The first written mention of Lázně Kynžvart is from 972 as Castelum settlement, when it was donated by Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor to bishop Wolfgang of Regensburg.
The castle soon lost its significance, was occupied by a bunch of thieves and in 1348 was burned to the ground by order of the King Charles IV.
[10] However, the train station named Lázně Kynžvart is located just outside the municipal territory, in neighbouring Stará Voda.
It 1821–1839, it was rebuilt into its current form by the architect Pietro Nobile, in the style of Viennese Neoclassicism.
[12] The castle's collections also include the Kynžvart Daguerreotype, which is protected as a national cultural monument.
Originally a two-story house from the second half of the 17th century, it was extended and rebuilt in the late Baroque style in 1770.
