Sun Baths Complex in Luhačovice

The restoration of the complex, originally built between 1902 and 1910, and its new use for the leisure activities of spa guests.
At its core is the Hydrotherapy Institute, designed by architect Dušan Jurkovič, which has been stripped of later modifications and restored to its original 1902 appearance. It now serves as a museum dedicated to the healing powers of nature, composer Leoš Janáček, and Jurkovič himself.
The southern part of the complex consists of Jurkovič’s River and Sun Baths, while the northern part features two buildings from 1909 by other architects: the former spa boiler house, now repurposed as the entrance building, and the former Mud Baths, transformed into a greenhouse for overwintering plants from the spa park and for summer social gatherings. 
The entire complex has been made fully accessible and landscaped as a park.
The Hydrotherapy Institute has undergone a complete heritage restoration, complemented by a newly built underground annex for facilities. Inside, remnants of an older mill from 1710 have been preserved, and the original cooling pools have been restored. Based on a few surviving original windows, doors, and period photos, replicas of all openings have been crafted. The Relaxation Room and the upper-floor apartment have been restored.
The outdoor pool has been converted into a walk-through water biotope due to sanitary regulations prohibiting bathing in river water.
The entrance building has been reconfigured, as its original internal structures had been previously removed. An underground passage connecting it to the Hydrotherapy Institute was excavated beneath the structure and built using a waterproof “white tank” system.
The greenhouse was created by removing its internal structures, most of which were not original.
