What makes Private Tour Berlin – Potsdam – Magdeburg with Local Driver a unique experience ?
Sanssouci Palace is one of the most beautiful palaces in Europe and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It was the summer residence of Frederick the Great and was built between 1745 and 1747. The palace is only one storey high (the upper floors are secondary wings) and sits on a terraced vineyard. Inside you will find stunning interiors. The main room is the Marble Hall, whose walls are decorated with gold and marble. Other interesting rooms include the Dining Room, which was used as a courtroom when necessary, and the Music Hall, considered a masterpiece of German Rococo. The palace is surrounded by a large park with alternating French and English gardens. Southern European vines, fig trees and yews grow on six terraces. There is a beautiful Baroque flower garden with a fountain and many marble statues. The extensive park contains unique buildings including the imposing New Palace, the Belvedere, the Golden Chinese Pavilion, the Dragon House, the Orangery and the Roman Baths.
The 13th-century Magdeburg Cathedral is the symbol of the city and the oldest completed Gothic cathedral in Germany. The church was built in the French Gothic style and its interior is still impressive today. It took 300 years to build and the architects learned by trial and error as they had no frame of reference for Gothic architecture. The temple is 120 metres long, has 100 metre high towers and rich artistic decoration. During World War II., Magdeburg Cathedral was severely damaged by bombing. Extensive reconstruction began in 1955 and was completed in 2006. In the same year, a new organ was built and ceremoniously reinstalled in its original place.
