Schwerin, population 90,000, is surrounded by five lakes. On an island in one of the lakes stands impressive Schwerin Castle.
Built between 1845 and 1857 the castle is accessed via a bridge.
Extensive renovations have been going on for over 10 years--explaining the monster-size crane to the right.
The castle is now seat of the regional government.
Another bridge leads to extensive gardens.
Gustrow, with a population of only 28,000, sure has an impressive post office building (that's the building behind the fountain).
Gustrow is an out-of-the-way town but, had to come here to see Gustrow Palace.
The Renaissance-style palace was built in 1589.
View inside the courtyard.
A moat runs around the palace.
