The name Gravelotte has a historical origin. In 1870/71 there was a battle in Gravelotte, France. Three men from the village of Meesiger took part in this battle. After returning safely, one of the three men, Fritz Ewald, bought 28 acres of hilly land with his military pay and built a rest house in the Swiss country house style. In doing so, he laid the foundation for tourism. On August 18, 1873, the name day of the Battle of Gravelotte, the inn was inaugurated. In memory of the Battle of Gravelotte, it was christened Gravelotte and registered.
