development
After Grand Duke Paul Friedrich moved the ducal court from Ludwigslust to Schwerin in 1837 , the city expanded to the west according to plans by court architect Georg Adolf Demmler ; the Paulsstadt and the Feldstadt expanded. The cathedral cemetery Schwerin was from 1779 to about 1863 near the old town, on the road. The old cemetery in today's Weststadt was built from 1863. In 1857 Demmler presented plans to expand the city to include a new district west of the Obotritenring; the plan was not approved by the citizens in 1866. Only in the 20th century from the 1920s did the eastern side of the Weststadt develop and from 1955 the area was expanded.
