Medevi Brunn

Medevi Brunn was founded in 1678 by Urban Hjärne and is Sweden’s oldest health spa. The water in the well is rich in minerals and considered very healthy - especially in combination with the atmosphere at Medevi village. The 100 buildings in Medevi are 150–300 years old and haven’t been modified since 1880. Today some of the old buildings hold a hotel with authentically restored rooms, a hostel, a restaurant and a café in the spa garden. Music has always been important in the daily life at the health spa. Musicians played at the buffet in the dining hall and for dancing in the society hall. During the 8 week long summer spa season, Medevi Brunnsorkester has daily concerts in the park, performing in the octagonal pavilion, built for the ensemble in 1875. During a summer season Medevi Brunnsorkester gives totally 165 concerts. Medevi Brunn is perhaps most famous for ”Grötlunken” (The Porridge Walk). It is a tradition that first occurred at Sätra Brunn (spa) but since 1860 at Medevi. Every evening at 9:00 pm the orchestra marches slowly together with spa guests and visitors. It is a nice way to gather and end a day at the spa. The music used is a march by Friedrich Zikoff: “Defilard March”.
