Full of romance and surprises: Schwerin
The Mecklenburg ducal family once resided on an island in Lake Schwerin. Today, visitors enjoy the idyllic location of the state capital. Schwerin, the state capital of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, wraps around the southern end of Lake Schwerin. Ponds and lakes dot the downtown area, which is centered on the castle where the Dukes of Mecklenburg once resided. Completed in 1857, this impressive landmark is scenically located on a small island. Another place of interest is the Staatliches Museum Schwerin with its collection of paintings and sculptures from the 16th to the 20th century. The cathedral occupies the highest point in the historic city center. Its tower is also the tallest in eastern Germany: 117 meters. Located near the train station, IntercityHotel Schwerin is a stone's throw from Schwerin's historic downtown. Boat tour to Kaninchenwerder – Take a fun-filled trip to Kaninchenwerder Island in one of the many boats located close to the castle.
