Potsdam
Sanssouci Palace's home
Potsdam is a city in northeastern Germany, capital of Brandenburg state, situated just southwest of Berlin.
It served as the residence of Prussian kings and German emperors, leaving a legacy of palaces and gardens—most famously Sanssouci.
The Potsdam Conference of 1945 brought Allied leaders together after World War II to determine Germany's postwar administration.
