October 14, 2025,Schwerin - Schloss 🏰 und Altstadt

When it rained this morning, we decided to go to Schwerin. Unfortunately, the castle is only partially accessible, as it's the seat of the Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania state parliament. So we lingered in the beautiful park and garden.☺️
The city of Schwerin is also impressive, with its mix of magnificent buildings and half-timbered houses.
All in all, an impressive city. 👍🏻

After our Baltic Sea vacation in Travemünde we made a detour to Schwerin on the way home. After a little stroll around and in the Schwerin Cathedral, we visited the Castle Museum, which is really worth seeing. The Burggarten and the Schloßgarten with its floating meadow and the Kreuzkanal are also worthwhile. The castle is also the seat of the …

Short trip to Schwerin with a tour of the castle, which was declared a World Heritage Site in summer 2024, through the castle and palace gardens and part of the old town. We didn't do a guided tour, sightseeing or boat trip on the lake, but we did take a break in a café while it was raining. If you …

Today we went to Schwerin and looked at Schwerin Castle from the outside. Unfortunately, it was closed, so we couldn't see inside. The beautiful gardens and everything around it are simply stunning and very inviting to walk around. The city center isn't very lively even though it's holiday season. I was expecting more crowds in general. Good for us 😁. …

July 4, 2025,Wow, Schwerin: Wie soll ich mich auf 50 Bilder beschränken??

Okay. 52 pictures turned out. Less couldn't be done 😲🤪😂

Sooooo. I'm asking everyone for explanations, ideas, flashes of inspiration 💡 ... What's going on here, or not going on?

Why is Schwerin so empty, and why isn't this beautiful city hyped more?

A short stop on our journey north in Schwerin, the state capital of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania.

Tomorrow we continue to Wismar.

Today was a real tourist tour with coffee and cake in the best weather. There is a lot more to explore, like the castle 🏰 from the inside and more of the old town. Unfortunately, time was too short.
