Potsdam is the state capital of Brandenburg in Germany - it has a unique landscape characterised by tranquil, meandering waterways, pristine nature and historic towns, and very near to the buzzing capital of Berlin.

Potsdam is home to the former summer residence of the Prussian Kings, the elegant Sanssouci Palace with its beautiful landscaped gardens.

Today, the city's reputation as a lively cultural centre is enhanced by the fascinating architecture of its historical districts such as the Dutch Quarter with its gabled red brick houses or the exclusive residential area of Babelsberg with its neo-Gothic castle and the Filmpark Babelsberg, Germany's one-time response to Hollywood.
