Potsdam - Sanssouci palace

In the morning, we had breakfast and went to nearby city Potsdam, where a beautiful summer palace of King of Prussia, Frederick the Great is located. The famous Sanssouci palace. It had a unique exuberant Rococo style. Especially memorable was the Grotto hall, which was all covered in stunning shells and fossils. King Frederick was an interesting character, a lover of art and books, he also loved dogs. So he was buried next to his many dogs, and people bring potatoes to his graves, because he was the one who brought potatoes from South America to Europe! And in the evening we went to Tangoloft - a beautiful tango Nuevo place!Weiterlesen
