The Altes and Kronprinzen palaces have been rebuilt,
Charlottenburg and the Potsdam palaces restored.
I've been to most of them! Potsdam is a beautiful place to visit.
ReplyDeleteI do like the aerials of Potsdam but the distances between palaces is vast! Have you seen the new book on the history of family life in the Neues Palais?
DeleteThe third of the three images listed as being the Neues Palais of the Potsdam ensemble is actually the Stadtschloss in the city center of Potsdam proper. (The dome of St. Nikolaikirche looming in the background gives the appearance, in this image, of being part of the palace.) The City Palace was bombed and burnt out at the end of WWII, the ruins demolished in 1960. Along with other historical buildings in the center of Potsdam, the palace has been rebuilt - finished just five years ago - though the interiors are all modern.
ReplyDeleteThank you Stephilius. I have edited the post deleting the Stadtschloss. I have more photos of the schloss but had decided to not include as it isn't familiar to many. It slipped in when attaching photos!
DeleteOne must always be on guard; one never knows when a rogue schloss might slip in! ; )
DeleteHow dare it!
DeleteThank goodness for readers and edit function!
Hey! Thanks you so much for sharing! One small comment from Potsdam, where I live:
ReplyDeleteThe third Image under "Photographs (below) of the Neues Palais in Potsdam c1870 & Interiors [Frederick & Vicky]" Is not "Neues Palais" but the "Stadtschloss" of Potsdam. Here:

Again, thank you so much for sharing! Best L.
Thank you very much. I have deleted the photo as I wrote above as the schloss is not familiar to many.
