Heilstätte Grabowsee, Former tuberculosis sanatorium in Oranienburg, Germany.

The medical complex spans 32 hectares of woodland near Lake Grabow, containing multiple treatment buildings, residential quarters, and administrative structures.

The German Red Cross established this facility in 1896 as an experimental lowland sanatorium, challenging the prevailing belief that only mountain air could cure tuberculosis.

The facility represents the evolution of German healthcare, from its inception under Bismarck's health insurance system through its transformation into a Soviet military hospital.

The property requires advance registration through Kids Globe management for authorized visits, as the buildings contain hazardous areas.

The facility maintained an underground electric train system for food distribution and a separate elevator designated for transporting deceased patients.
