THE HISTORY OF FRANZENSBAD
It stands almost in the heart of the spa town, is not very large and is actually a little hidden in the park vegetation. However, its value is inestimable - it is a symbol of the town and a place of hope. We are of course talking about the statue of the little boy Francis, who is said to have extraordinary abilities.
In fact, in the imagination, Francis is one of the "most powerful local sources of healing". Legend has it that he helps with sterility and other gynaecological problems. It is said that if a woman touches his left big toe, she will become pregnant within a year. In medical terms, however, these successes are attributed more to Františkovy Slatina.
