What to expect
Beelitz-Heilstätten is a historic district in the town of Beelitz, located in the state of Brandenburg, Germany. The district is home to a large hospital complex, which was originally designed as a sanatorium by the Berlin workers' health insurance corporation in 1898. The complex features a unique ensemble of 60 buildings, including a cogeneration plant, and is surrounded by extended pine woods of the Nuthe-Nieplitz Nature Park. The hospital complex has a rich history, having served as a military hospital during World War I and II, and later as a Soviet military hospital until 1994. Today, some of the buildings have been renovated and are used for various purposes, including a neurologic hospital and a nursing home. Visitors can explore the historic complex and its surroundings, which offer a glimpse into the region's history and natural beauty

Beelitz Heilstätten: Lost Places even without a guided tour and treetop walk
Activities: We spontaneously went on a search for clues at the ruins of Beelitz-Heilstätten. We went for a walk around the area, including the old men's clinic, seeing the main building behind a construction fence and the old open pavilions. We also saw the old power plant
Highlights: We enjoyed the pittoresque decay and the glimpse of the past. The open pavilions were perfect for a rest. We explored the area and saw the old power plant. "It is still verfallen, rusty and exciting." ✨
