⭐ Welcome to Schwerin, the enchanting capital of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern and the celebrated "City of Seven Lakes". This walk begins where every visitor wants to stand: before the fairytale Schwerin Castle, a romantic palace rising from the water on its very own island. From there, you stroll through terraced palace gardens, across the grand Alter Garten flanked by a ducal art museum and a lavish state theatre, into the quiet gabled lanes of the old town to the lively market square, and finally up to the soaring red-brick Gothic cathedral. Along the way, the shimmering Pfaffenteich reminds you why this royal residence city has fascinated travellers, poets and princes for centuries. Step onto the island and let's begin.
