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 .
