Review:
Schwerin Castle is a palatial manor located on an island in the middle of the Schweriner See. The palace had been home to many of the dukes and grand dukes in history and is now the residence of the Mecklenburg-Vorpommern state parliament. The first record of a castle here goes back to AD 973, but the current palace was mostly built around 1845. Though the place attracts many history and architecture buffs, the castle also has many visitors who are interested in paranormal activity; this is due to the ghost, called Petermännchen, who is said to roam the halls of Schwerin Castle wearing clothes from the 17th century.
