Cecilienhof Palace
Schloss Cecilienhof
English Tudor-style palace in the New Garden of Potsdam, where the Potsdam Conference was held in 1945. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Cecilienhof was built in 1917 for the last German crown prince and his wife, and its exterior imitates an English Tudor country house. In July and August 1945, Truman, Stalin and Churchill (later Attlee) held the Potsdam Conference here. The round table in the conference hall and the offices of the delegations have been kept as they were. Together with Sanssouci, it forms the World Heritage Site 'Palaces and Parks of Potsdam and Berlin'. Admission is about €14. Take bus 603 from Potsdam Hauptbahnhof for about 15 minutes.
