Grunau is a desert that once belonged as a district to the former municipality of Großgrimma until Großgrimma was incorporated into the town of Hohenmölsen in the Burgenland district in Saxony-Anhalt in 1998 . The village of Grunau (like the other localities of Großgrimma) was demolished at the end of the 1990s. The town hall had to give way to the Profen opencast mine for the extraction of lignite .
