Ciepliczanka i Zdrój

Ciepliczanka and Zdrój – a deer couple in love on a little bench resting on a heart. They exchange flirty glances in front of Schaffgotsch Palace, right at the heart of the spa.

Fun fact: Cieplice has been famous for its hot springs since the 13th century – it is one of the oldest spa towns in Central Europe. The Schaffgotsch family developed the baths here over hundreds of years, and guests came to treat rheumatism, skin conditions and general exhaustion.
