"Mecklenburg Switzerland" Botanical Garden
The Botanical Garden features 300 perennials and 400 woody plants.
Spread across 2 ha, the garden displays not only plants but also sculptures by various artists, 100 roof tiles from historic buildings across Europe, and 70 paving stones from historic streets and squares. The Botanical Garden in Rambow features 300 different perennials and 400 woody plants. The birch collection, comprising 25 different species, is one of the most significant in Mecklenburg. The woody plant collection offers a cross-section of species and continents. The individual families of woody plants—such as beech, maple, linden, chestnut, and others—comprise 12 to 18 species. Four to five species from each family are on display. The garden is in bloom from spring through fall. It begins with Japanese ornamental cherry (3 colors) and forsythia (2 colors), and continues with chestnut (3 colors), fruit tree blossoms, lilac (8 varieties), roses (20 species), water lilies (10 colors), ornamental shrubs (15 species), and hardy hibiscus (11 colors). The season concludes with the roses’ second bloom. Five small raised bogs showcase the diversity of bog flora, including pitcher plants, sundew, orchids, and woody plants typical of bogs. A pond displays the two types of mosses that form bogs. The 100 m² demonstration garden illustrates the possibility of achieving partial self-sufficiency. It includes 2 raised beds, a herb bed, an apple tree, a white sweet cherry tree, a white currant bush, a gooseberry bush, a Jochelberry bush, a serviceberry bush, and a greenhouse. The greenhouse allows for hobby gardening in the form of a cactus collection and the cultivation of vegetable plants. Next to the greenhouse is a small raised bog with orchids and a rock garden with hardy cacti. The demonstration garden shows that it is possible to combine a hobby with growing your own fruits and vegetables, even in a small space. It is intended to provide inspiration and encourage the exchange of ideas.

Permanent exhibition "Model railroads from 150 years"
● Moltzow
150 years of model railroading - 15 dioramas, display cases and model railroad panels show the development of model railroading from its beginnings to the present day. A model railroad is a scaled-down (scale smaller than one) replica of parts of a "large" railroad. The classic toy trains were already being built on a larger scale at the beginning of the 20th century for the nominal size 1 in 1:32 and 0 in 1:45. Well-known manufacturers included Bing and Märklin. It is typical that the locomotives can drive themselves thanks to a built-in drive. The size ratio between the model and the prototype (for example 1:87) is referred to as the scale, whereby common scales are each assigned a letter/number abbreviation (T, Z, N, TT, H0, 0 etc.; order starting with the largest reduction in size). The most common scales are - T, 3mm M 1:480 - Z, 6mm M 1:220 - N, 9mm M 1:160 - TT, 12mm M1:120 - H0, 16mm M1:87 - 0, 32 mm M1:45 - II, 64mm M1:22.5). The exhibition will feature 15 dioramas, showcases and model railroad plates in these gauges. There are also plans to build a G-gauge garden railroad in 45 mm. This scale reproduces a narrow-gauge railroad with an original gauge of approx. 1200 mm. Please telephone or register by email before visiting.
