context_page_description: The Mill Colonnade is a large colonnade containing several hot springs in the spa town of Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic. The structure is one of the traditional symbols of the town.
context_section_description: Karlovy Vary has 13 major springs and the Mill Colonnade covers five of them, ranging in temperature and history:
  Mill Spring (Czech: Mlýnský pramen), 56 °C (133 °F), used for therapeutic purposes since the 16th century, was historically one of the more popular springs, and its waters were at one time sold at stores in the region. The spring was named after an old mill which used to stand in the area.
  Rock Spring (Czech: Skalní pramen), 53 °C (127 °F), originally rose next to the nearby Tepla River ; in 1845 the spring was diverted to the current location of the Mill Colonnade.
  Libuše Spring, 62 °C (144 °F), is a merger of four smaller springs, and was originally named the "Spring of Elizabeth's Roses".
  Nymph Spring (Czech: Rusalčin pramen), 60 °C (140 °F), was known prior to 1945 as the "New Spring" and had its own colonnade before the Mill Colonnade replaced it.
  Prince Václav I Spring, 65 °C (149 °F), was originally one of the strongest springs in the area in both yield and force, and was used to produce curative salt.  A second spring, Prince Václav II Spring, 58 °C (136 °F), comes from the same source and flows out several meters in front of the Mill Colonnade.
