Neues Palais

The New Palace in the Park of Sanssouci is a significant building that served as a representative venue for Frederick the Great. In contrast to the intimate Sanssouci Palace, it impresses with its magnificent banquet halls, grand galleries, and princely furnished apartments. Particularly noteworthy is the baroque palace theater in the south wing. As the last palace built by Frederick the Great in his park, it symbolizes the strength of the Prussian state after the hardships of the Seven Years' War. Visitors can admire the recently restored Lower Prince's Quarter and the splendid Grotto Hall, both of which are among the most precious interiors in Europe. The extensive renovation work has restored the mysterious sparkle of the Grotto Hall, which once fascinated the guests of Frederick the Great.
