Editing Neustrelitz (section)

==Sights and monuments==

The city centre is characterised by [[Baroque]] architecture. Its heart is the ''Marktplatz'' (Market Square), with the ''Stadtkirche'' (city church), built in 1768–1778 and the opposite ''Rathaus'' (Town Hall), built in 1841 by Friedrich W. Buttel, a disciple of [[Karl Friedrich Schinkel]].

The Baroque [[Neustrelitz Palace]] was destroyed in 1945, but the palace gardens (''Schloßgarten'') still exist. Worth seeing are the 18th-century ''Orangerie'' (from orange), initially used as a summerhouse, the ''Schloßkirche'' (Palace Church) built in 1855–1859 in English [[Neo-Gothic]] style, the [[Neoclassicism|Neoclassic]] Hebe temple (with a replica of a statue of the goddess [[Hebe (mythology)|Hebe]]), and the Louise Temple, built in 1891 in the shape of a Greek temple to house the tomb of Queen Louise of Prussia, born Princess of Mecklenburg-Strelitz.

There is a small lake, Glambeck See, where one can swim in summer in a protected area and have lunch at a restaurant overlooking the lake.
