Why you're safe with the holiday experts

DERTOUR is part of the DERTOUR GmbH group of Frankfurt - one of the world's leading tour operators . We also hold our own ATOL and are members of ABTA.

We've been creating perfect tailor-made holidays to the heart of Europe for 50 years. A lot has changed in that time, but one thing that has always remained the same is our total focus on serving you in the very best way that we can. This includes ensuring your satisfaction and security. It's why DERTOUR is fully licenced with our own ATOL and is also adheres to all the rules and principles of ABTA.

ATOL is a financial protection scheme for holidaymakers travelling on an air inclusive holiday, which is managed by the Civil Aviation Authority. This protects you from losing your money or from being stranded overseas in the very unlikely event that DERTOUR should go out of business. Our Air Travel Organiser's Licence (ATOL) number is ATOL 1839.

When you buy an ATOL protected air inclusive holiday* from us, you will receive a confirmation invoice from us (or via our authorised agent through which you booked) confirming your arrangements and your protection under our ATOL.

* The air inclusive holidays we arrange are ATOL protected providing either the person who pays for the booking is present in the UK when the booking is made or the first leg of any flight or flights we arrange for you commences in the UK. For further information, visit the ATOL website at www.atol.org.uk

ABTA was created in 1950 by 22 leading travel companies. It now represents over 5,000 travel agencies and more than 900 tour operators, right across the British Isles. ABTA helps to maintain the highest standards of trading practice for the travel industry and its customers. The ABTA logo is a sign that you can expect choice, value and high levels of service from DERTOUR.

DERTOUR is also fully committed to always try to provide an alternative holiday or route in times of disruption that is out of our control, such as in the event of volcanic ash, disruption to air travel due to heavy snowfall or an airline strike grounding aircraft.

If you have any questions about our ABTA membership or the financial protection provided under our ATOL, please don't hesitate to call us on 020 7290 1104.

Destinations » Germany » Schwerin » Schwerin Castle - Schwerin

Schwerin's unique landmark, the neo-Gothic Castle, is situated on an island in Lake Schwerin and was built around the chapel of a 16th-century ducal palace. The castle is guarded by a statue of Niklot, an early Slavic prince, who was defeated by Henry the Lion in 1160. The huge, graphic picture of his death is a highlight of the castle interior. The Palace Chapel is an architectural gem. It was built during the years 1560-1563 as the fi rst specifi cally constructed protestant church in the area. A neo-Gothic chapel, with imposing stained glass windows, was added in the 19th century.

 

The Castle Garden was laid out in English style with its centre piece the Orangerie. Today the castle is the seat of the government and houses the Parliament of the federal state of Mecklenburg- Western Pomerania as well as the impressive Castle Museum. Visitors to Schwerin will hardly be able to resist the attraction of the castle with its multiplicity of towers and turrets and its many diverse façades. With the surrounding parks and gardens, it presents itself as the largest and most important modern palace site in this part of Germany.
