Venue

Nestled in the heart of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Waren is a charming town, known for its natural beauty and central location in north-eastern Germany. Situated on the shores of the Müritz, Germany’s largest lake, also known as the “small sea”, Waren offers a tranquil setting surrounded by water and lush landscapes. It is also the gateway to the Müritz National Park, a UNESCO-listed gem that preserves primary forests, crystal-clear lakes, and diverse wildlife, including rare birds and majestic red deer. There are two special woodland areas in the town itself: the Kurwald Waren, a “cure forest” for relaxation and regeneration, and the Heilwald Waren, a healing forest used for therapeutic purposes. Trainers offer guided activities that promote mental and physical well-being.


Thanks to its central location in northeastern Germany, Waren is easy to reach and yet retains its peaceful charm. The beautiful backdrop, the charming waterfront, and the proximity to the pure nature of the Mecklenburg Lake District make the town an ideal venue for the 7th ISFT congress. Whether you are looking for inspiration, peace and quiet, or contact with other professionals, Waren offers the perfect setting for our event.
