If all you want to do is convert the coordinates, you don't need to go
through GRASS at all. Just use the cs2cs program from the proj package
to do something like this:

    cs2cs +proj=... +ellps=bessel
          +to +proj=latlong +datum=WGS84

(I don't know what proj= parameter to use for your grid. See cs2cs -lp
and the cs2cs manual page.)

I once walked a couple of kilometres along the snowy road from Füssen to
Tirol. :-)
