Group Offers New Chambers of Sanssouci
To the info page of the venue
Located directly next to Sanssouci Palace, the New Chambers served Frederick the Great as a magnificent guest palace, which the king had redesigned from a former orangery building in 1771–74. The rich, late Rococo interior decoration has been preserved.
Splendid festival halls with luxurious interior decoration were created in the New Chambers – as the palace was known thereafter. Guest apartments, whose marquetry chambers are particularly notable, were located on the west side. The rich interior design of the New Chambers is of exquisite beauty and quality.
The terraces and parterres of Sanssouci Palace may also be viewed during the integrated tour of the park.
We offer the following group tour:
- New Chambers of Sanssouci audio guide tour
New from 2024: In the context of digitalisation, we are focusing on the "Bring Your Own Device" trend in the New Chambers of Sanssouci. Plan your visit and download the APP New Chambers of Sanssouci in advance via the APP Store and GooglePlay. This means that visitors no longer have to rely on an audio or multimedia guide from the Prussian Palaces and Gardens Foundation, but can simply download the tour as a group onto their own mobile devices. Of course, free Wi-Fi is available to guests in the Palaces so that they can also access the digital audio guide on site with their own mobile devices.
