Catedral de Schwerin

One of the largest and one of the most beautiful brick Gothic buildings. The tower, which is 117.5 meters high, can be climbed over 220 steps and offers a beautiful panoramic view. The 50 centimeters make it the tallest tower in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. It was completed in 1893, much later than the cathedral nave. The beginnings of church building go back to 1154.

In addition to the castle, the cathedral is Schwerin's landmark. Especially when you look down at the Pfaffenteich from the north, it towers over everything. A highlight of the brick Gothic.

Almost exactly a year has passed and we visited the cathedral again.
The restoration work has made great progress. The Cornelius window has now also been restored. We're still working on the ducal graves, but progress can already be seen there too.
