We are not surprised by this as you get everything in one here: the vibrant Berlin metropolis, the Potsdam State Capital – the former centre of Prussia with its castles and gardens (which are part of UNESCO’s world cultural heritage) – as well as the idyllic Mark Brandenburg countryside with its more than 3,000 lakes and 30,000 km of watercourses (and thus Europe’s most extensive landscape of rivers and lakes). On our home page, you can obtain information and services for your holiday in the Brandenburg Holiday Destination. Among other things, we introduce you to the highlights of the state, make suggestions to you regarding your tours from a day trip to a one-week round trip through the entire state and present you with tips regarding the event highlights to come.
