Caroline Spring (Karolinin pramen)
Magnesium-rich acidulous water
Named after Princess Caroline Augusta, the spring owes its reputation to an exceptionally high magnesium content — traditionally recommended for kidney stones. Its pavilion belongs to the colonnade ensemble, steps from the Singing Fountain.

Traditionally used for
Originally called the New Spring, it received Princess Caroline Augusta's name in 1817. Its high magnesium share makes it the classic choice for kidney stones — and it lends its name to the neoclassical Caroline Spring colonnade, one of the town's most photographed structures.
