So beautiful City. Nice people. I didn’t saw that much but the nature and some buildings were so pretty. I was here for a concert and it was fantastic. It’s not that big but very charming. Hope to be here again soon.

Schwerin is very small and kind, so you haven’t be scared. Sure in the dark every place seems like in an Horrorfilm but I felt quiet safe. It wasn’t that much people outside at the afternoon so you just walked by yourself

Schwerin is a small town in nord germany. I can't say that nothing ever happens, but I go out for a walk at 3 in the morning alone and I'm not afraid and if I come across someone I rarely feel like something might happen to me.

So far, I have not had any major negative experiences. People are careful to act immediately in emergencies. Once, a woman fell and three people ran to her immediately, helped her up and inquired about her health. Like any city, Schwerin has one or two neighborhoods that do not have a good reputation. But the majority is positive.
