Sanssouci Palace

Friedrich the Great's amazing 18th-century palace, reminiscent of the grandeur of Versailles, is surrounded by a magnificent 600-acre park.

Reviewed By GeorgeW2719

Frederick the Great built this as his summer palace and dubbed it Sanssouci or "Carefree." Often referred to as the German Versailles, Sanssouci boasts charming Rococo style buildings and furnishings--more intimate and less grand than Versailles. The grounds of Sans Souci contain many smaller and charming buildings--but be preferred to walk long distances. Among the most interesting is the Chinese tea pavilion with hilarious European depictions of Chinese figures--not meant to offend--just not well informed. Chinese porcelain is also used in abundance to decorate the walls of the palace. Situated in Potsdam, this requires a train and a bus to get to from Berlin.

Jagdschloss Schorfheide

The baroque hunting castle of Groß Schonebeck was built in its present form under the regency of Prussia's "soldier king" Friedrich Wilhem I.. Today, in its upper story it houses a part of the permanent exhibition "Jagd und Macht" (Of Hunt and Power). On the base floor, we present a sideshow about the German boxing legend, Max Schmeling, showing him from a different view: nature-lover, and hunter. The castle and its grounds are literally made for many occasions: before or after your visit at the exhibitions, you can have a piece of cake or a cup of coffee. Many a couple changed rings in our wedding room on the castles first floor with its wonderful ceiling and wooden fireplace. Over the year, a variety of concerts and readings take place. Our other buildings house the main part of the "Jagd und Macht" exhibition, and also the Tourist Information.

Babelsberg Castle

This Gothic Prussian castle has been largely forgotten in favor of Sanssouci and thus makes for a relatively uncrowded historical experience.
