The unique density of around 2.000 magnificent residences, lovingly restored manors and manor houses and extensive parks will not only make the hearts of history buffs beat faster. The cool walls of the architectural treasures are a great place to spend the summer with readings, concerts and festivals.

The Schwerin Castle is the shining highlight and focal point of the relaxed capital of the vacation region, with SUP and boat hire directly in front of the castle as well as theater performances and relaxed picnic concerts in the park. As part of the historic castle ensemble, it has recently been rightly .

And with 2,000 kilometers of coastline and just as many lakes, the magic is there for everyone.

4. networked water wonderland

The water laps rhythmically against the bow of the canoe, birds chatter from the wild shore: on the networked waterways of the vacation destination have a special atmosphere in summer. Here you can simply let yourself drift along or cover kilometers without breaking a sweat. Did you know, for example, that you can paddle from Berlin to Schwerin?

Pssst… With a bit of luck, you might even spot a hunting or discover a kingfisher. Quiet and always surprising.

5. summer in the sand

And in the evening at the latest, everyone is drawn to the water again: strolling along the promenade, the elegant Bäderarchitektur of yesteryear with the beach feeling of today to create a summer vibe all of its own.

A cool drink from the , plenty of space, a fresh breeze in your nose, the horizon that lets you take a deep breath and the sun disappearing behind the Baltic Sea. Summer can be this relaxed.
