The [Sauerland] (https://www.sauerland.com/de/neusta-pois/naturschutz-und-moor downhill-woesten-Bad-Sassass) is known for its nature reserves. The Woeste, which is also part of the Natura 2000 EU area network, offers a variety of habitats for different animal and plant species. Not only are numerous bird species here, but visitors can also enjoy the diverse flora and fauna. The area was once used for cattle farming, but since the peat and the use has changed drastically.

The functioning of the moor reduction has changed over the years. Around 3,000 cubic meters of Lower Moortorf are taken for therapy production a year. Since great care applies to the wetlands, small amounts of the peat can be used today for soothing applications in the "Medywell" therapy department. The importance of these bog healing baths in North Rhine-Westphalia is not only culturally, but also high in health. Ultimately, about a third of the North Rhine-Westphalian spa locations bear the predicate "Moorheilbad", which reports the relevance of Bad Sassendorf Court resorts and spas, that this predicate only five times a total of five times was.

The anniversary weekend in Bad Sassendorf not only promises a review of 50 years of successful spa history, but also exciting insights into nature and its health -promoting opportunities. Be there and celebrate!
