Between royal dreams, great powers and the Berlin Wall - a journey through time in the green world heritage site of the New Garden
Garden tour from the Marble Palace to Cecilienhof Palace

Intended as an alternative design to Sanssouci Park, the New Garden was created at Jungfernsee over 230 years ago on a royal commission. However, world history also left behind changing memories and lasting traces in this green paradise: royal park walls grew up out of fear of bourgeois discontent. A crown princely couple fulfilled their unusual dreams of living here. At the end of the Second World War, soldiers fought in the garden. Three superpowers conferred about a new world order. Soviet occupiers built an amusement park in the former royal greenery. The Berlin Wall cut through the park for almost three decades and created moving biographies.
The scars of time and violence have been almost completely removed from what is now a World Heritage Site. However, an entertaining walk from the Marble Palace to Cecilienhof Palace makes these memories of world history visible again. The tour focuses on the history of the creation and use of the New Garden, the events surrounding the Potsdam Conference in 1945, the Soviet occupation and the division of Germany. Before or after the walk, there is the opportunity to visit the Marble Palace or Cecilienhof Palace.Translated with DeepL
