A castle that shines especially in Advent
Those who experience Schwerin Castle in winter encounter not only one of the most famous sights of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern but also a place with a strong cultural heritage. The tour tells of the history, architecture, and furnishings of the house while also showing how Christmas was celebrated at court. Thus, a walk becomes an intense glimpse into the world of the Grand Dukes.

Historical rooms, festive atmosphere

For visitors, this creates a cultural enrichment that goes far beyond a classic museum visit.
