The tour starts in the historic centre at square Alter Markt. This square reflects an exciting mix of modernity, art, culture and politics. With the Museum Barberini, the Potsdam Museum, the St. Nicholas’ Church and the Brandenburg State Parliament with the appearance of the historic city palace, the heart of the city shines in new splendour. In good weather, climbing the 216 steps to the viewing platform of St. Nicholas’ Church is an absolute must. From up here, you can enjoy an impressive view of Potsdam’s cultural landscape.

From the square Alter Markt, this path leads to the Filmmuseum Potsdam. The former stables of the City Palace document over 100 years of film history in the city. The route continues from square Neuer Markt to the old city canal. After the once so practical waterway was filled in, a section of the canal was restored.

Cross a small bridge to reach the baroque city centre. Small and large shops, regional cafés and inviting restaurants adorn the shopping street, which the inhabitants affectionately call “Broadway”. From there, the route leads to the Dutch Quarter. Frederick William I wanted to attract Dutch craftsmen to Potsdam with this remarkable neighbourhood. Today, it is home to cosy shops, cafés and bars that invite you to linger in Dutch style.
