Victory Column

Highlight • Monument

The Victory Column was built in 1874 and is located in the immediate vicinity of Schwerin Castle. It is to commemorate the fallen Mecklenburg soldiers in the Franco-German War of 1870/1871.
Gustav Willgohs created the victory column from captured French artillery. The bronze guns were melted down and poured into a mold to form the victory column.

Schwerin Castle

Highlight • Castle

This magnificent jewel is located directly on Lake Schwerin. Schwerin Castle is certainly one of the most beautiful in Germany. I couldn't decide which side is the prettiest. Whether at sunset from the lake side or with the beautifully landscaped castle park in the foreground. After the walk, you can also visit the fairytale castle from the inside as part of a guided tour.

Arsenal at Pfaffenteich

Highlight • Historical Site

The arsenal is one of the most striking buildings on the Pfaffenteich. It also stands out in terms of color

The arsenal was built between 1840 and 1844 according to the plans of the Schwerin court master builder Demmler. The reason for the construction was the relocation of the residence of Grand Duke Paul Friedrich from Ludwigslust to Schwerin. The arsenal is located on the west bank of the Pfaffenteich. Built in the Tudor Gothic style, it served as an arsenal and barracks for the Ducal Guards Regiment. Typical of the construction are the large massive towers in the middle and at the corners of the building. The arsenal has had various uses in the past. Therefore, there were several conversions inside the building. The Ministry of the Interior of the Federal State of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania is currently in the arsenal.
