History of locale – Municipality Březová

The municipality ‘Březová’ or as it translates into German as ‘Pirkenhammer’ is closely located to the Tepla river valley with the Lomnický mountain stream flowing adjacent to the Villa. You can take a leisurely stroll through the nearby forests and eventually end up at the main colonnades and their hot springs. 

 

Municipality Březová became noteworthy and of cultural significance for the porcelain factory ‘Pirkenhammer’. At the turn of the last century, Březová and Karlovy Vary region saw a meteoric rise of Bohemian glass, crystal and porcelain artists and artisans. As a result, porcelain from Březová can be found at the Vatican, in collections of Royal families and even at exhibitions displaying artifacts of the Titanic wreckage. Additionally, Březová has enjoyed popularity with the spa crowd for day trips or short excursions to visit historical buildings and notable monuments. The St. Linhart game reserve and the Diana observation tower are reachable by a leisurely and scenic walk on a nearby forest trail.
