Lake Kummerow is, after all, the eighth largest lake in Germany. Here at Kummerow Harbor, there are always impressive plays of light across the water and the beach, always worth a stop. On April 29, 2024, the "Hafenkieker" kiosk reopened here with a new operator and harbor master and extended opening hours.

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.
