Jagertor
An old city gate with a royal touch. Once part of Potsdam’s fortifications, it still holds clues to the past—if you know where to look.
A square with a past as grand as its architecture. This is where Potsdam’s rulers made history, shaping the city one decision at a time.
A little slice of the Netherlands, right in the heart of Potsdam. Walk the red-brick streets and hear the story of how a Prussian king brought a bit of Amsterdam to Germany.

A theater with a past that goes way beyond the stage. Named after an actor who stood up for what he believed in, this spot proves that art and history are more connected than you think.
