The 6ft 5in stopper played a crucial role in the Hatters’ promotion to League One in 2017-18, a season in which he kept 15 clean sheets in 42 appearances and was named in the PFA Team of the Year.
Previously, the 30-year-old enjoyed a year three spell with Sparta Prague, where he won the Czech Supercup in 2014.
Štěch, who has one full cap and 12 at under-21 level for the Czech Republic, earned his first promotion in England with Yeovil Town, helping the Glovers win the League One play-offs in 2013.
Mansfield Town manager Graham Coughlan was delighted to finally get the goalkeeper into the club.
“Marek is a top goalkeeper who has presence, stature and a great pedigree,” manager Graham Coughlan told www.mansfieldtown.net.
“I’ve been chasing him for 12 months, so to finally land him is a big relief.
“Obviously, being promoted with his previous club shows the experience that he has amassed.
“Along with our goalkeeping coach, Seamus McDonagh, they will drive the goalkeeping department and help our younger goalkeepers grow and develop.”
