Since April 2023, the long-planned Petermännchen traffic light has been in place in front of the castle.
The red phase with the silhouette of the castle ghost counts down the time.

Schwerin is probably the only place where a castle ghost, the Ampelmännchen, is to be found. The Petermännchen, who is said to have once put Wallenstein to flight, according to legend.

The Petermännchen is a small goblin with a sword, lantern and bunch of keys, a sinister look and a pointed feather hat. Despite his sinister look, he is said to be good-natured. He only gets angry when he is red and you cross the street anyway 😉
