Lübeck is close to Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, perhaps Germany's most natural - and least populated - federal state.
Typical is Teterow, a medieval town in the heart of Mecklenburg Switzerland. This region features an undulating landscape that makes for one scenic view after another with a network of peaceful back roads linking sleepy villages. Beyond its natural beauty, Mecklenburg Switzerland is famed for its manor houses and castles.
Just more than an hour away from Lübeck, Schwerin, the state's capital and second-largest city, is a surprising charmer of a town. Seven lakes and an endless forest surround it, and the old city retains the culture, architecture and vibrancy of its 19th-century glory days following five centuries as seat of the dukes of Mecklenburg.
