The Gradierwerk, which was built by the Prussian state between 1756 and 1765 (interrupted by the Seven Years' War) to increase the salinity of the brine in the immediate vicinity of the Elmener brine springs, originally had a length of 1323 meters.
The plant, which was a technical masterpiece, was eventually extended to 1837 meters, making it the largest ever built graduation tower.
Today there are about 320 meters left. The graduation works today exclusively for outdoor inhalation.

The old spa park with its imposing graduation tower is really exceptionally beautiful.
