It is impressive what buildings and sights are in the park.

No other palace is so closely associated with the personality of Frederick the Great as Sanssouci Palace. The name Sanssouci - without worry - is to be understood as the king's wish and leitmotif, because this is where he preferred to withdraw with his dogs. His summer residence was his favorite place and an important refuge in difficult times.

Today Potsdam and a carefree trip to Sanssouci. Parking in the underground car park. 3 euros an hour, but well located. Start, don't wait. Potsdam city center, especially the Dutch quarter, is very beautiful. Back and on to the palace park. Even though we were a bit tired, we saw a lot. Potsdam is very beautiful. And the tour somehow …

You have to be good on foot if you want to see everything in Sanssouci in one day. And you shouldn't dawdle either. But if you plan the admission times to Sanssouci Palace and the New Palace well, you can achieve a lot.
In any case, it is absolutely worth seeing and should not be missed. It's just a pity …

But our tour of the Church of Peace,
Sanssouci Palace, windmill, picture gallery, Charlottenhof Palace, Chinese House and New Palace was already …
