Ludwigslust, Urban municipality in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Germany

The Ludwigslust Palace stands in the center of a 120-hectare English garden with canals, fountains, and artificial cascades connecting different sections of the grounds.

In 1765, Duke Friedrich of Mecklenburg designated Ludwigslust as the capital of his duchy, replacing Schwerin until 1837 when the administration returned to its former location.

The Municipal Church, constructed from 1765 to 1770, exhibits neoclassical architecture with six Doric columns supporting its portico in the style of Greek temples.

The Ludwigslust railway station provides connections through ICE, EC, IC, and RE train services, offering transportation links to major cities and regional destinations.

The Ludwigslust Motodrom, situated 3 kilometers west of the town, hosted qualifying rounds for the Speedway World Championship during the early 1990s.
