    Tips

    No visit to Potsdam is complete without a detour to the most famous sight, Sanssouci Palace. Built in the Rococo style from 1745 to 1747 according to King Frederick II's own sketches, the vineyard palace was the king's summer residence. The tour with audio guide is worthwhile - as is a long walk through the beautiful park.

    In the summer months, the vineyard terraces are particularly beautiful, and the motif of wine can also be found in the design of the interiors. If you want to admire the park and palace in peace in the summer, you should set off early - or enjoy the evening hours.

      Where does it already exist that the central garden part of a palace complex is ultimately a kitchen garden whose design is optimized for the highest possible yield? And that already arose before the castle was completed on the top terrace - "my vineyard cottage" is said to have called it Frederick II. Country cultivation and country beautification as an expression of enlightened mind. 132 steps lead up to six terraces.

        Located in the middle of a beautiful park, in which there are some other buildings worth seeing, the "Ohne Sorge" castle is certainly the main attraction of Potsdam - and that's saying something with the multitude of castles and historic buildings
