It existed from around 1270/1280 until the mid-16th century and was located in the north of the city. The monks, also known as the "Grey Monks," built a Gothic brick church and a cloister, the eastern wing of which, with its cloister, has survived to this day. After several fires – the church in 1604, the west wing and cloister in 1711 – only the eastern cloister wing survived, which is now used as a cultural and exhibition space.

The history of Gransee's town halls dates back to the Middle Ages. The old town hall originally stood on the church square opposite the current building and served as a seat of public jurisdiction, warehouse, and trading center. It burned down in 1606 and 1621, but was rebuilt each time. The final loss came in the devastating town fire of 1711, which completely destroyed the building.

The statue commemorates the medieval knight Kuno von Falkenstein, although it is not directly connected to the Black Forest legend of the same name. Instead, the name serves as an artistic homage and a connection to the region's history and identity.

It originally belonged to one of the city's two hospitals and is one of the few remaining buildings whose outer walls have survived all major city fires—including the devastating fire of 1711. The chapel was rebuilt in 1715, while the adjacent hospital had to be completely rebuilt.

Gransee's historic city wall is approximately 1,750 meters long and is considered almost completely preserved. Dating back to the 14th century, it surrounded the medieval town as a fortification. The wall was built from 1330 onward and originally comprised 35 watchtowers, moats, and city gates.

The war memorial in Gransee's municipal forest is an approximately 15-meter-high obelisk-shaped monument made of hewn fieldstone, which was inaugurated on October 27, 1901. After the First World War, additional memorial stones for the Gransee citizens who died in that war were erected at the foot of the memorial, creating a common memorial complex.
