March 23, 2026, Ludwigslust Train Station

Ludwigslust station is an exciting hub in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. It is not only an important stop for commuters, but also a historic gateway to one of the most significant Baroque complexes in Northern Germany.

Beautiful road to the castle

The statue was created in 2003 by the sculptors Andreas Krämmer and Holger Lassen and commemorates Alexandrine of Prussia (1803–1892), who became Grand Duchess of Mecklenburg-Schwerin through marriage. Since then, the ornate bronze figure riding a horse dominated the image of Alexandrinenplatz – until May 12, 2024, when it was severely damaged in a tragic traffic accident. A vehicle drove at high speed across the roundabout, knocking the statue off its pedestal and causing significant damage. The public's sympathy was immense – as was the determination to bring Alexandrine back. (Source: https://www.ludwigslust.de)

Town hall, post office, toast model, and the "Schloßstraße" promenade...small but nice. Unfortunately, too many cars

Near the castle bridge begins Schloßstraße, which leads into the city center. Schloßstraße follows the course of the historic Klenower Dorfstraße and therefore has a slightly angled shape compared to Schlossplatz. The charming, two-story houses were designed by court architect Busch and feature a uniform eaves alignment. The four individual houses in each block are separated by so-called "Tüschen" – courtyard entrances. Particularly noteworthy are the four plaza-like widenings, enlivened by individual houses and special uses. The streetscape is characterized by vibrant red, unplastered brick buildings adorned with Dutch architectural elements. Come and discover this unique district! Cobblestones everywhere... not for stiletto heels! 🤣🤣
