State capital Schwerin
The state capital of Mecklenburg Vorpommern is definitely an interesting place for an excursion. The cityscape has changed a lot in recent years, and old and new do harmonize. A city tour may start with visiting the castle. Other sights are the wonderful old town, the stables, and the state theater of Schwerin. A must-do is a trip with the white fleet on the lake of Schwerin. You can drink a coffee in the newly renovated "Turm-Cafe" in the TV tower of Schwerin.
