The Mecklenburg-Vorpommern State Museum of Technology (German: Technisches Landesmuseum Mecklenburg-Vorpommern) was founded in 1961 in Schwerin as the Polytechnic Museum (Polytechnisches Museum) and was located in several rooms within Schwerin Castle. Later, it moved to the Marstall buildings next to the castle. Since December 2012, the technology museum is located at the Phantechnikum in the city of Wismar, 40 km north of Schwerin.
