RG09... Potsdam ,Germany

 


Potsdam is primarily known palace complex Sanssouci. Potsdam and Berlin is not chosen as his residence the Prussian King Frederick II, and though San Souci In addition, there was no worries (Sans Souci - with France. "Carefree"), was also without women, Frederick managed to win my respect. ..

 

Frederick the Great was known as an enlightened monarch. In addition, that the king was obviously taste, he led a modest lifestyle. Do not overeat, do not drink, got up before the servants, and indeed, direct the palace Sanssouci is very small.


Floor, with only twelve rooms.


Palace interiors are decorated in the Rococo and Classicism. As it is, except the king's apartments, a library, assembly room, study, 5 guest rooms and even a local mini-pantheon. Throughout the palace - a small gallery with works by Watteau, Lancret, Patera, the works of French decorative arts. It seems that inside, Frederick also wanted to create a garden, so the grapes, leaves, flowers, musical instruments and birds are everywhere!


"Solar" arbor talk about the solar cult, which I also very much pleased.


Plus, the King is very kind to nature and its gifts. At the harvest festival presents his mother with a basket of fruits and vegetables, with the Sans-Souci is situated on six terraces with figs, grapes and not as it seems from afar and is written everywhere.




Frederick is buried there and then ...


... together with their dogs and not wives, as some think)


The park 290 ha. It was created in two stages.




In the years 1745-1747 were erected portal and an obelisk, a grotto of Neptune, an art gallery, the Palace, a Chinese tea house, and after the Seven Years' War, the New Palace, the ancient temple and the temple of friendship, gazebo on the hill Klausberg, a house with dragons.


Chinese house, hidden among the trees, is a prime example of Chinese fashion hobbies (kitayschina "), which spread throughout Europe, including Russia, and reached its apex in the XVIII century. And it's a different story))




Descriptions of travel, as well as products that fall on the trade routes from Asia to Europe, creating an impression about China - as the country's earthly paradise. And the court sculptor in life seen the Chinese, had to include all the imagination and ingenuity to represent overseas friends. At the same time, posed for them, of course, the same court of the king)


To the west of the park is located art gallery, the oldest extant in Germany, a museum, but the east is the former greenhouse, transformed into a guest house. To the north overlooking the reservoir for park fountains and picturesque architectural ruins. Gates open entrance to the park with a beautiful landscape.






In the western end of the main mall is impressive in size The new palace, which was intended to accommodate guests of the king.


Costly project was to show the world that the forces of the Prussian state did not run out after seven years of war. On the west side of New Palace are communes that have their walls covered views spanning them in the XVII century unattractive marshland. They were equipped with the necessary auxiliary buildings, posted workers and court officials.


And finally, Cecilienhof. This Frameworks building in the form of a quadrilateral is made in the style of English country houses and no one looks like a palace, though it's Palace)


If you think in the center of the red star of the Soviet army, it it is) It was here from July 17 to August 2, 1945 Potsdam Conference was held at which the heads of the allied states Truman (United States), Attlee (United Kingdom) and Stalin (USSR ) signed the Potsdam agreement defining the future of Germany.




Named the palace in honor of the wife of Crown Prince Wilhelm of Princess Cecilia. And interestingly, they have lived here until the war itself. The building is designed in a way that does not seem huge, pompous palace, and yet inside there is 176 rooms!


Castle Garden is decorated with neatly trimmed bushes. This topiarnyh art - the art of topiary trees and shrubs to give them shape of animals and other geometric and fantastic shapes. For kids specially planted flowers, smelling of vanilla (and this tradition is still supported!)




By itself, Potsdam - a typical small town ...


... But that has not been without raisins in mind the Dutch Quarter.


Which was built by Frederick to bring in the Dutch town of artisans ...




It is worth noting also that, in the vicinity Potsadama have several Russian villages)


As well as beautiful lake Wanzee - terminus branch u-bahn, where I lived, oh ...
