A lot has already been restored, but there is still a lot to do - but that too has its charm and is worth seeing.The area around the city is very wooded, around 2,500 hectares of the urban area consist of forest.
The Old Polish name contains the noun grab, which means beech or hornbeam. The name occurs more frequently in Mecklenburg. It was only slightly changed as Grabowe (1186, 1252, 1275) and Grabow (1189, 1298).After the political change, the historic town center of the half-timbered town with the town hall (1997/98) was fundamentally renovated as part of urban development funding. In 1995, inter alia the harbor wall, until 1998 the town hall was renovated. In 1999 a pedestrian bridge was handed over over the Müritz-Elde-Wasserstraße, and in 2001 the new Rehberger Bridge was built as a lift bridge. Until 2010, the western old town could be built on, partly on a former factory site.de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grabow_(Elde)
