Miniland Mecklenburg-Vorpommern, Miniature park in Dummerstorf, Germany
Miniland Mecklenburg-Vorpommern is a miniature park in Dummerstorf featuring over 70 detailed replicas of notable buildings from the region. The models are built at a 1:25 scale and spread across approximately 4.5 hectares (11 acres), with both outdoor and indoor exhibition areas.
The park opened in 2002 with roughly 29 outdoor models and 14 indoor exhibits and has grown steadily over two decades. By 2018, it had added its 70th model, reaching a significant collection size.
The park displays replicas of buildings that people from the region recognize and value in their daily lives. These models tell stories about the architecture and places that matter to the local community.
The grounds are open daily during set hours, with parking available at the entrance and pathways that make it easy to explore the models. Visitors should wear appropriate clothing for weather conditions since much of the site is outdoors.
One model of the St. Marien Church in Wismar required about a year of handcrafted work and consists of tens of thousands of individual pieces. The complexity of this replica reveals the skill of the craftspeople who assemble each figure with great care.
