here you can take shelter when it rains. The market square is very nice in summer with the fountain.

A very nice dock. A special highlight is that you can rent a houseboat here and play captain on the Mecklenburg Lake District. You don't need a driver's license for this.

a perfect resting place: you can cool off (or even cycle through) at the fountain. There are several supply points at the market. It's nice to sit on the benches

The town hall of Neustrelitz was inaugurated in 1843.

Oversized square with an unrelated church in the corner - also a bit too clumsy - the town hall is also completely unspectacular - but a nice ice cream cafe in a "corner"
