The splendid ensemble in Germany’s green heart, Thuringia, is the pinnacle. A third golf course is soon to be added.
It is said that every room breathes the spirit of its owner. Rarely is the signature of the owners of a living space as distinctly palpable as in the Spa & GolfResort Weimarer Land. Located just 20 minutes by car from the city of Weimar, famed for Goethe, Schiller, and the Bauhaus, the Grafe family has established a refuge where even the smallest detail reflects their quality standards and style.
A Special Note of Personal Hospitality
This note of personal hospitality characterizes the atmosphere throughout the entire facility: from the 94 rooms and suites of the hotel and the seven residential units in the family building, to the LindenSpa, whose wellness area was expanded again in 2023 to 3,000 square meters with high-end offerings, to the resort’s now seven restaurants.
Seven Restaurants, Two with Michelin Stars
The Masters, led by executive chef Danny Schwabe, and The First, by Marcello Fabbri, each shine with a Michelin star for their Franco- and Italian-inspired haute cuisine, making the Weimar region quite unique. The Güldene Zopf in the nearby town of Blankenhain focuses solely on Thuringian specialties. Additionally, Grafe hosts the annual Culinary Open every January, a walking dinner that attracts Michelin-starred chefs from far and wide.

By 2012, the two loops had been developed into the wooded, artfully bunkered Goethe Course (5,971 meters, Par 72) nestled in the scenic Weimar hills and the flatter Feininger Course (5,707 meters, Par 71) featuring numerous water hazards and challenging greens.
