Water. World. Heritage – A journey through Europe in Potsdam
Being located in the water-rich landscape of the River Havel undoubtedly makes Potsdam a exceptionally charming destination. Not only will culture lovers find many a treasure here, but nature enthusiasts, active holiday-goers and leisure travellers can also enjoy the beautiful views of Brandenburg's state capital.
Whether walking, cycling, or by boat, the Havel is your constant companion, offering peace and relaxation. Sometimes transported by your own muscle power, sometimes by an environmentally-friendly, hybrid engine, there is a suitable way for everyone to cruise the waves.
Once aboard, the change of perspective will open up new horizons. Time and again, your gaze wanders to the outstanding buildings on the Havel’s green banks; the Italian-style campanile of the Heilandskirche Sacrow, the steam engine house in the shape of a mosque, Cecilienhof Country House that was built in the English style of a country manor, or the Norwegian sailor's station, Kongsnaes. The palaces and gardens of the UNESCO World Heritage Site tell of the eclecticism of their creators - blending Italian lightness, French elegance and English grandeur.
A visit to Potsdam is like travelling across Europe. Very close to the metropolis of Berlin, and yet the clocks tick more slowly here. It's time to pause and to be inspired. Brandenburg's state capital is undoubtedly a masterpiece - characterised by the flow of time.
