The castle of Schwerin, located in romantic surroundings on an island in the lake of Schwerin, is known as one of the foremost examples of historicism within Europe. Its, up till now, preserved appearance has been established during the latest renovation during the 1900's, including four houses from 15th - 17th century.The 3 floors castle museum is located in these seaward buildings.
Grinding mill Schwerin
The wheels of the water pumping station at the Faulen lake have been turning since 1705, where they in the mid 18th century started with the processing of large rocks. As ducal mill produced the mill mainly table tops, window sills or steps for the castle of the Duke. The processing of rocks in the mill ended, upon completion of the castle in Schwerin in 1857. In the following decaded the water mill operated as a woolen mill, after which it was closed in the early 20th century. After this the water wheel stood still as well. When the mill became used as a home two decades later, the mill was brought to live again. In 1983 one started to consider the historical value of the mill. The exhibition area with the reconstructed art of the 18th century was re-opened, for the 825 year anniversary of Schwerin in 1985.
