Climatic recovery

The outstanding feature of Graal-Müritz is its unique bioclimate, which is made up of the perfect harmony of sea, forest and moor. Dr. Carl von Mettenheimer, personal physician to the Duke of Mecklenburg, discovered the healing effects of this special air quality over 100 years ago. Here, salty sea air is combined with the therapeutic oils of the surrounding forests - a gift for health and well-being.

Numerous events and readings help to ensure that this cultural treasure remains alive and that guests can still immerse themselves in the town's artistic past today.
