A good place to start a tour of Schwerin is at its most famous building, the Neo-Renaissance Schloss (Palace). It was built in 1843-57 on a small island in Lake Schwerin when the Dukes of Mecklenburg returned from almost a century in nearby Ludwigslust. The architects, Demmler and Stüler, were inspired by Chambord in the Loire Valley and the influence is obvious although this Schloss is of course much smaller.
The Schloss houses the Landstag (Parliament) of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. niture, Meissen porcelain, and court paintings. The 16th-century Schlosskirche (Palace Chapel) at the north of the building is Renaissance, with lovely galleries and intricate vaulting. Opening hours are daily from 10 am to 5 pm, closing at 6 pm from mid-April to mid-October.
