Guided tour of a nationally significant ensemble
The visit will take you through the grounds of the Great Orphanage in Potsdam and makes it clear why this place is much more than a monument. The historical development dates back to its founding in 1724; the later redesign in the style of Prussian late baroque gave the building its impressive shape.
