Group Offers Cecilienhof Country House

To the info page of the venue

Built from 1913 to 1917 in the English country house style, Cecilienhof Country House is the last palace built by the Hohenzollerns. Emperor Wilhelm II (1859-1941)
had the residence built for his eldest son, Crown Prince Wilhelm (1882-1951). Until 1945 it was the residence of the last German Crown Prince and Crown Princess Wilhelm and Cecilie of Prussia (1886-1954).

From July 17 to August 2, 1945, the palace at the gates of Berlin became the scene of world history, the site of the Potsdam Conference,
where the heads of state and government of the three main victorious powers of the Second World War, the United States, Great Britain and the Soviet Union, discussed the future of Germany and a political and territorial reorganization of Europe and the world.
While World War II was over in Europe and the "Big Three", Harry S. Truman, Winston Churchill and Josef Stalin were negotiating, the fighting in Asia and the Pacific region continued unabated, culminating in the dropping of the atomic bombs
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki on August 6 and 9, 1945

The permanent exhibition takes visitors on a journey back in time to 1945 in the historic palace rooms with the conference hall and the workrooms of the
three heads of delegation.

We offer the following group tours:

  • Cecilienhof Country House, the historic site of the Potsdam Conference multimedia guide tour (this offer does not include the private rooms of the crown prince couple)

At some palaces, we offer a surplus fee up to a specific number of participants for the second guided tour. The surplus fee flat rate cannot be booked as an individual service.

    There is no minimum number of participants required for a group tour.

    Guided tours can be booked in a variety of languages. The bookings of a respective language are carried out subject to availability of tour guides and cannot be guaranteed.
