Guided Story

Can you hear the gentle lapping of the lakeshore? That's the Inner Lake surrounding the Marstall. Imagine it's 1842. Horses are galloping across what were once the Wadewiesen, now the Marstall Peninsula. This place was the heart of the noble stables of the castle. Look around, notice the baroque style of the buildings? Picture the cavalry training here. Behind you, the other side of the peninsula, you can still feel the aura of history. Just a short walk away is the State Museum Schwerin, another city gem. And if you look closely, you'll see how time seems to stand still here while remaining so lively.
