Literature in the Park

The readings under the motto “Quiet Tones – Distinctive Voices – Exciting Story(s)” with prominent voices from the world of film and television have been very popular with readers and audiences since the introduction of this series and must not be missed this year either.

Guided Tours

You have never seen the art collection of Old Fritz? Are you interested in the king’s sleeping habits and the multitude of architectural gimmicks that Frederick the Great implemented in Sanssouci? In the park and its historic buildings, exciting themed tours will be offered during the Palace Nights to satisfy curiosity and answer questions.

Sanssouci

Sanssouci – that is not only the palace of Old Fritz, but above all the park with its unique terraces and the magnificent fountain in the center, world-famous and in 1990 included in the UNESCO World Heritage List. Every year, the Castle Night offers the rare opportunity to experience these historic gems in romantic lighting and elaborate staging. ► More information
