As a South African we really don't have the type of cultural heritage sites that are found in Europe. Therefore this palace took my breath away and I found the grounds impressive as well. The inside didn't really tickle my fancy but one can take their time wandering around the palace, the 'Orangerie' and the wave park. However this is... More

A visit to Schwerin was not on my bucket list, but it is close to Hamburg. We should have just done a day trip. It is pretty boring once you have gone over the castle More

Parts of the castle cannot be seen as they are used as Parliament. The gardens are lovely and the location superb. More

The castle is well worth a visit even though only a small part is open to the public. Two floors of one side of the castle are open. People were using audio-guides but we just walked around. Each room had an information board in both German and English and told you just enough information. There were not too many people... More
