Guided tour of the vedute in Sanssouci Palace and the New Chambers with palace employee Frederike Jefferies, SPSG

“To Potsdam, to Potsdam! I need that to be happy. When you see this city, you will definitely like it.”



Potsdam is the life's work of Frederick the Great. He preferred to live in Potsdam rather than Berlin and had the city redesigned according to his plans. Italian Renaissance and Baroque buildings were the inspiration for the beautification of the city. The Prussian king was passionate about building and created his dream destination in the south, his replacement Rome.


Participants can see for themselves the Italian inspiration and architectural models in many of the paintings in Sanssouci Palace. Numerous views of the city of Potsdam from the 18th century will delight you in Neue Kammern and represent the transformation of the barren soldiers' town into an architectural showpiece.
