Information Pavilion on the Thermal Spring

Highlight • Structure

Colberg owes its title as a spa to three deep drillings from the last century, which led to the bubbling of three thermal springs. They are used in the modern spa clinic for bathing, for inhalations and as a drinking source. The information pavilion on the edge of the small spa park gives an interesting overview of the geological condition of the area and the mining development of the thermal springs.

Grenzweg Station 7 – Bad Colberg

Highlight • Historical Site

Before the political change, Bad Colberg was close to the inner German border. The spa was reserved for the “political class”. Today the small town is on the green belt.

Tourist Information Bad Colberg

Highlight • Rest Area

Good place to explore the town and surrounding area from here. Bad Colberg - small spa pearl. Everything is actually there in town. In addition to the tourist information, two inns, a coffee shop, e-charging station, Regiomat - the modern shop. There are also overnight accommodations, a thermal spring and a small spa park. And the whole thing is the size of a village with less than 50 houses.

The catch: It has “beaded up”. Thanks to non-skilled immigration, the corona crisis, crazy energy prices and mismanagement, the rehabilitation clinic has closed. This also means that the place is falling behind. Another piece of “Best Germany of all time” gone. The beautiful landscape and wonderful cakes in Sabine`s Cafe remain.
