Your journey begins with the impressive Babelsberg Palace, a neo-Gothic palace surrounded by expansive gardens and elegantly perched above the water. Originally built for Emperor Wilhelm I, the palace and its landscaped gardens provide a breathtaking start to your cruise. From here, you will sail under the historic Glienicke Bridge, also known as the "Spy Bridge" due to its role in prisoner exchanges between East and West during the Cold War. Its presence above the river is both peaceful and powerful.
Depending deeper into Potsdam's green heart, you will reach Cecilienhof Palace, a Tudor-style palace where Churchill, Truman, and Stalin met for the Potsdam Conference in 1945. Its tranquil setting in the New Garden contrasts sharply with its significant historical importance. Just beyond, the delicate neoclassical marble palace rises on the lakeshore, reflecting the elegance of 18th-century royal architecture.
During your journey, your skipper will share insights into the monuments, landscapes, and stories that make this region so extraordinary. Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a peaceful escape in nature, this cruise combines picturesque relaxation with cultural richness. The tranquility of the water, the majestic silhouettes of the castles, and the gentle breeze create an unforgettable experience for couples, families, and friends.
