Karlovy Vary are considering the demolition of the Vřídelní Colonnade
 |
"If it is technically possible, I will try to have this colonnade demolished and a new colonnade built," said Tomáš Hybner. According to him, the building from 1975 does not fit into the center of the spa, and he would prefer a replica from the late 19th century. The city leadership should decide on the demolition of the colonnade no later than in two years.
Experts claim that the Vřídelní Colonnade is the most technically advanced in the city, and for historians, a replica is just a reminder of an era that has already passed. Furthermore, the foundation of the colonnade is sensitive to tremors due to the mineral springs, so according to Milan Trnka, director of the Spa Sources and Colonnades Administration in Karlovy Vary, the colonnade should be interfered with as little as possible.
The value of the colonnade is 80 million crowns; demolishing it would cost the city more than 14 million, and the new construction would cost 150 million crowns. For example, according to the ODS representative Monika Makkiehová, the city has other priorities, such as the condition of roads and sidewalks. Nevertheless, the majority of politicians agree that they do not like the current colonnade very much.
The Vřídelní Colonnade, which is famous partly thanks to the film "Vrchní, prchni," attracts thousands of tourists daily.
