History Of Carlsbad Alkaline Artesian Mineral Water

Carlsbad Mineral Water was discovered in 1882 by Capt. John Frazier when he drilled a well for his
farm near the beach. The alkaline mineral water cured a stomach ailment from which Capt. Frazier
had suffered for years. Intrigued, he sent samples of the water to two independent testing laboratories
in New York and Chicago. The results showed his water was chemically very similar to the healing spring
mineral waters found in a famous European spa resort that was at that time called Carlsbad, in Bohemia 
 (Today, the city is Karlovy Vary, Czech Republic, and is still famous for its therapeutic spas.)

One of California’s real estate booms was happening at the time, and Capt. Frazier platted his farm
for a city  that he called Carlsbad. He also started bottling his water and selling it across the nation as
(The American) Carlsbad Mineral Water. He built a huge Victorian hotel beside his original well, and
people came from all over  the world and included at least two U.S. presidents enjoying the alkaline
mineral water for drinking and for bathing, just as they would in the European Carlsbad.

The real estate boom of the 1880s crashed, but Carlsbad’s alkaline mineral water continued to be
popular until the Great Depression, when the well was abandoned because the owners lacked the funds
for maintenance.

The well was lost until it was rediscovered in 1955 by Kay and “Chris” Christiansen. The Christiansens
wanted to restore the well and revive the mineral-water business, but for various reasons they could
not do so. In 1991, Kay met Ludvik & Veronica Grigoras, who became interested in helping her with
her dream.

Ludvik  had been born in Karlovy Vary, when it was Czechoslovakia and under Communist rule.
He escaped at the age of 18 to Austria and lived in Germany for two years. He immigrated to the
United States, New York City in 1971.

From 1993 to 1995, Ludvik and his wife Veronica worked at restoring and re-drilling the well. By this
time, Ludvik had been instrumental in forging a sister-city relationship between his birthplace of
Karlovy Vary and Carlsbad, Calif. In late 1995, the mayor and city council of Carlsbad, along with an
official delegation from Karlovy Vary, officiated at the formal re-opening of the Carlsbad Mineral

Water Artesian Well. In June 1996, famous therapeutic Carlsbad Alkaline Water™ finally ­after an
absence of 60 years ­once again became available to the public.
