The invention relates to a method for producing sulphur-containing potash granules from fine-particle, potassium-chloride-containing raw materials and elementary sulphur, and to the sulphur-containing potash granules obtained with this method. The method comprises the following steps a) and b): a) mixing a potassium-chloride-containing, fine-particle raw material with a sulphur melt in a quantity of 2 to 30 wt. %, in particular 3 to 25 wt. %, preferably 5 to 23 wt. % and particularly preferably 8 to 20 wt. % in relation to the total amount of sulphur melt and fine-particle raw material, producing a mixture of fine-particle raw material and molten sulphur; and b) compacting the mixture of fine-particle raw material and molten sulphur obtained in step a). The invention also relates to the use of sulphur melts in the production of potassium chloride granules by compacting a potassium-chloride-containing, fine-particle raw material to reduce the pressing force during compacting, and to the use of sulohur melts to improve the mechanical strength of potash granules, containing potassium chloride, in particular potash granules obtained by compacting a sulphur- and potassium-chloride-containing, fine-particle raw material.
