Photographing the Palace was very difficult. Major parts were
under renovation and it was hard to get a shot without a scaffold or a construction crane.

Schwerin Palace is nicknamed Neuschwanstein of the North.
It is situated on an island in the city's main lake, the Schweriner See.
For centuries the palace was the home of the dukes and grand dukes of Mecklenburg and later Mecklenburg-Schwerin.
Today it serves as the residence of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state parliament.
