A coordinate-free approach to limits of spacetimes is developed. The limits
of the Schwarzschild metric as the mass parameter tends to 0 or $\infty$ are
studied, extending previous results. Besides the known Petrov type D and 0
limits, three vacuum plane-wave solutions of Petrov type N are found to be
limits of the Schwarzschild spacetime.
