Renovated commandery on the Elbe with sauna

You will live in one of six unique apartments in a historic brick building, each with its own character. The renovation combines old substance with contemporary precision: restored original windows, ecological building materials such as hemp lime and clay, exposed brick walls, and exposed vaulted ceilings. Rough and smooth at the same time: historical elements meet new details. Clay plaster, lime screed, and reed ceilings create a breathable indoor climate. The apartments are spread over the garden level, mezzanine, and attic – all with a terrace or balcony, all with a view of the greenery. Your apartment opens onto the courtyard or the countryside. The botanical balcony combines architecture and vegetation. All guests can use the sauna in the old vault – daily from 12:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., other times by arrangement. Behind the dike begins the UNESCO biosphere reserve: swim in the river, rent canoes, cycle along the Elbe Cycle Route. In the village itself: half-timbered houses, cobblestone streets, Romanesque church. Have breakfast at Café Lämpel, order vegetables from Grünland Salzwedel, watch storks circling overhead.
