Special tour of the Palace
Special tour “from the cellar vaults to the cupula”
As the Palace constantly needs to be restored and renovated, this tour is always changing. Depending on the state of construction works, you get the opportunity to go where visitors usually don’t have access. This is your exclusive chance to take a look behind the scenes of the Palace and the State Parliament.
When? Tours will be arranged individually. At the moment all enquiries are handled by the Parliament of Mecklenburg-Vorpommern. Tel.: +49 385 5252163 (Contact: Mrs Krüger)
