How many days in Potsdam?

One day covers the essentials that lie close together.

Friedenskirche · Schloss Sanssouci · Schloss Charlottenhof · Neues Palais

A second day lets you go beyond the very centre.

Schloss Cecilienhof · Brandenburger Tor · Stadtschloss · Michelson-Interferometer · Einsteinturm

Three days are comfortable — enough for museums and places further out.

Glienicker Brücke · Jagdschloss Glienicke · Schloss Babelsberg · Bahnhof Potsdam Griebnitzsee · Reststück der Berliner Mauer

An account lets you save the plan, change it and tick things off as you go.

We measured walking times to the main sights from different parts of the city. From the area below you reach them in 40 min on average, 86 min at the furthest, and 2 of them are within walking distance.

• Schloss Sanssouci (854 m)
• Orangerieschloss (1543 m)
• Neues Palais (2635 m)

For comparison: from the worst-placed area it is 83 min on average to the same places.
