Feldberg wants to become a Kneipp spa: one step towards becoming a health metropolis!

Feldberg wants to become a Kneipp spa: one step towards becoming a health metropolis!

The town of Feldberg in the Mecklenburg Lake District has big plans: it is aiming for the title of Kneipp spa. Mayor Constanze von Buchwaldt is convinced that the city is well prepared to achieve this status. With ten years of experience as a Kneipp health resort, Feldberg already has many prerequisites to meet the requirements. The concept for the spa will be presented to the public on Tuesday, which will certainly attract great interest as spas have become very popular in recent years.

But what actually makes a Kneipp spa? What is fundamental is the availability of mineral, thermal or brine springs or mud spas, which are currently missing here. Nevertheless, the city has numerous facilities that are well equipped for healthy relaxation. These include, among other things, a spa park, various spa facilities and a healing forest where visitors can relax.

Current developments and offers

The clean air and clear water have always been the main criteria that have made Feldberg predestined as a location for a healing center. These factors continue to be the basis for local tourism development. The Klinik am Haussee, which opened in 1998, specializes in rehabilitation in cardiology, neurology and psychosomatics, and also offers Kneipp treatments as therapy. An affiliated medical wellness center ensures relaxing wellness stays at the Feldberger Haussee.

• Fünf zertifizierte Nordic Walking Strecken runden das sportliche Angebot ab.
• Ein Outdoor-Fitness-Parcours und verschiedene Wassertretmöglichkeiten sind ebenfalls vorhanden.
• Der Kurpark verfügt über eine Kneippanlage, einen Barfußpfad und ein Gräserlabyrinth, die zum Erholen einladen.

What is particularly advantageous is that the area offers numerous health-promoting activities in a natural environment. The water in the region is particularly important because it seeps into the earth and absorbs minerals and trace elements. These mineral water sources can have various effects on the body - whether through bathing, drinking or inhaling.

A look into the future

The increasing popularity of the Kneipp spas has led to more and more guest houses and restaurants being built in the surrounding towns in recent years. It remains exciting to see whether Feldberg can meet the requirements for the desired spa status. This could be a real win for the region.

The integration of modern therapy offerings in a natural ambience could attract both older and younger people seeking relaxation. The potential that would arise if the site were successfully designated as a Kneipp spa appears to be promising. After all, doctors and natural healers discovered and researched the positive effects of thermal springs at an early stage.

Feldberg could soon become a new address for health-conscious tourists who not only want to experience the healing power of nature, but also want to contribute to their own health. There is definitely something moving here, and the next few weeks will show how the city's plans take concrete shape.
