EXPLORE POTSDAM
ONCE YOU’RE HERE, YOU’LL NEVER WANT TO LEAVE
Potsdam is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a city of castles and gardens. It is a magnificent and historic cultural pearl with idyllic lakes and more than 1,000 years of history. Potsdam is a centre of film, education and science, a colourful student town and, by the way, right next to the lively German capital of Berlin.
THE EXACT LOCATION
Hotel am Havelufer is an exciting blend of styles, with a historic building designed by the 19th-century architect Ludwig Persius and a modern part created by Rave Architekten. The hotel is located in Potsdam City West right on the banks of the river Havel. Want to go exploring? The main train station is about 3 km, Berlin’s Tegel and Schönefeld airports about 35 km away. Are you a cyclist? Then rent a bike and explore one of the numerous bicycle routes through Potsdam and the surrounding area starting directly in front of the hotel.
SANSSOUCI – ROYAL AND SUBLIME
Sanssouci Palace, the summer residence and favourite retreat of Frederick the Great, is beautifully situated above a terraced vineyard with breathtaking views over the entire city. The name Sanssouci – French for “without concerns” – can be understood as the wish of the king, known affectionately as “Old Fritz”, who preferred Potsdam to Berlin and resided here with his dogs. Enjoy a stroll through the 300-acre Sanssouci Park with its fascinating natural settings and magnificent buildings such as the New Palace, the Picture Gallery and the Orangery.
