Potsdam jellemzők

Potsdam, with its unique cultural landscape, its palaces and gardens, was included in 1990 in the list of World Cultural and Natural Heritage Sites.
For more than 200 years, the city was the royal capital of the Prussian kings, and drew to their court the most important artists and architects. Evidence of this fertile period of creation are masterpieces of the Baroque, Rococo, Neoclassical, and the mid-19th-century Gründerzeit. These include, among others, the palace and garden complexes of Sanssouci and the Neuer Garten with the Marmorpalais as well as Schloss Cecilienhof, well known for the Potsdam Conference, but also the palaces in the environs of Potsdam, such as the palace and park of Babelsberg, the palaces of Glienicke, Sacrow, the palace on the Pfaueninsel, Caputh, and Paretz.
