The
city of Schwerin boasts a unique symbiosis of art, nature and architecture in
Germany. Some call her "a gem mirrored by the lake" others refer to her as "a
city between lakes and forests". With 13 lakes, parks, gardens and forests
within her boundaries the city combines convincingly a natural setting for
culture and a cultural setting for nature.
A large number of artistic and cultural institutions enrich daily life in
Schwerin. Historically grown unique collections can be found in the State
Museum. The State Theatre of Mecklenburg - lavishly renovated in recent years -
enjoys highest recognition for the variety of its programme. The annual
highlight of the cultural calendar is the Castle Festival for Theatre and Music
owing it to its unique setting in the Old Garden and the Castle.
For the Castle Festival for Theatre and Music we offer special arrangements The
tickets to the shows are already reserved for you!
