A local would say...

Berlin's answer to Versailles — a baroque palace that survived the bombs, where you can picnic on royal lawns without paying a cent.

An exquisite baroque palace and one of the few sites in Berlin that still reflects the one-time grandeur of the royal Hohenzollern clan. Started as a modest summer retreat for Sophie-Charlotte in the Versailles model, it grew into a sprawling complex with a lush palace park ideal for strolling, sunbathing or picnicking. The surrounding museums share a combo ticket valid for same-day entry.
