Sanssouci Palace (Schloss Sanssouci) - Interior splendor ! Potsdam, Germany
If we had not paid the camera charge required, I would not have been able to get some of these wonderful photos taken of the stunning inside of Schloss Sanssouci (Sanssouci Palace). Located in Potsdam, Germany, it has often been called the Versailles of Germany because of it's opulent splendor and gardens/grounds.
It was worth paying the camera charge - it was one photo opportunity after another: statues and busts, wonderful furniture, chandeliers of all sizes, paintings and other artifacts. Some of the walls had carved wooden paneling depicting animals and other interesting motifs. I could go on and on, but see for yourself.
Normally we do video and slide show combination, but for this a simple slide show, along with music, highlights and displays the treasures to their best advantage.
Since this was King Frederick the Great's summer palace, emphasis with everything was on comfort and it shows in every room. The palace was used for parties and other entertainment.

Sanssouci - (Schloss Sanssouci) Palace grounds & gardens in Potsdam, Germany
Some people have referred to it as the Versailles of Germany, but Sanssouci isn't quite as large; the reference is likely to one of the most beautiful & scenic palace grounds and gardens found, along with several temples and follies. Located in Potsdam, Germany, Sansoucci is actually one of several palaces built in the area known as Sanssouci Park.
Commissioned by Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, as a summer palace he could retreat to and it wase opened in 1747. Along with the residence, there is an elaborate terraced garden that was designed to grow grapes for his own wine, plums and figs.
We started a very short visit before doing the inside tour of the palace (for which we will have another video upload), then did a very leisurely detailed walkabout of the grounds and garden area, with the magnificent statues and fountain, after the tour.
As mentioned before, Sanssouci is only one of several palaces within the park & I have videos up of the Neues Palais (New Palace), the Orangery Palace, as well as the exotic Chinese House pavilion and other points of interest. If you wish, you can read more about all of them by clicking this link to Wikipedia:

Potsdam, Germany - Neues Palais & Schloss Sanssouci HD (2013)
The New Palace (German: Neues Palais) is a palace situated on the western side of the Sanssouci royal parkin Potsdam, Germany. The building was begun in 1763, after the end of the Seven Years' War, under Frederick the Great and was completed in 1769. It is considered to be the last great Prussian baroque palace.
Sanssouci is the former summer palace of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia, inPotsdam, near Berlin. It is often counted among the German rivals of Versailles. While Sanssouci is in the more intimate Rococo style and is far smaller than itsFrench Baroque counterpart, it too is notable for the numerous temples and follies inthe park. The palace was designed/built by Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorffbetween 1745 and 1747 to fulfill King Frederick's need for a private residence where he could relax away from the pomp and ceremony of the Berlin court. The palace's name emphasises this; it is a French phrase (sans souci), which translates as without concerns, meaning without worries or carefree, symbolising that the palace was a place for relaxation rather than a seat of power.
Sanssouci is little more than a large, single-story villa—more like the Château de Marly than Versailles. Containing just ten principal rooms, it was built on the brow of a terraced hill at the centre of the park. The influence of King Frederick's personal taste in the design and decoration of the palace was so great that its style is characterised as Frederician Rococo, and his feelings for the palace were so strong that he conceived it as a place that would die with him. Because of a disagreement about the site of the palace in the park, Knobelsdorff was fired in 1746. Jan Bouman, a Dutch architect, finished the project.
During the 19th century, the palace became a residence of Frederick William IV. He employed the architect Ludwig Persius to restore and enlarge the palace, whileFerdinand von Arnim was charged with improving the grounds and thus the view from the palace. The town of Potsdam, with its palaces, was a favourite place of residence for the German imperial family until the fall of the Hohenzollern dynasty in 1918.
After World War II, the palace became a tourist attraction in East Germany. Following German reunification in 1990, Frederick's body was returned to the palace and buried in a new tomb overlooking the gardens he had created. Sanssouci and its extensive gardens became a World Heritage Site in 1990 under the protection of UNESCO; in 1995, the Foundation for Prussian Palaces and Gardens inBerlin-Brandenburg was established to care for Sanssouci and the other former imperial palaces in and around Berlin. These palaces are now visited by more than two million people a year from all over the world.
Sanssouci (Germany) Vacation Travel Video Guide
Travel video about destination Sanssouci in Germany.
Located in North Germany close to Berlin, Potsdam is a city of gardens and castles.The Prussian kings settled in the region and expressed themselves in their garden culture. In 1745 Friedrich The Great ordered the construction of Sanssouci Castle and Park, the most beautiful garden complex in Europe with fine avenues and elegant buildings. It was in this castle that the king wished to forget the anxieties of court and political life, ‘sans souci’ – ‘without worry’ - and he did! In the imposing Marble Hall that is framed by numerous columns and whose large doors can be opened towards the terrace, extravagant feasts took place. Corinthian double columns appear to emerge from out of the colourful marble floor, four allegorical motifs decorate the niches and tiny figures decorate the dome. Architecture, music, painting and astronomy each feature beneath the gilded decoration of the splendid dome. Sanssouci Castle and Park are truly beautiful and a World Heritage Site that since 1989 has attracted large numbers of sightseers.

Inside Neues Palais (New Palace) in Sansoucci Park - Potsdam, Germany
Located a good distance from Sansoucci Palace, it is a nice enjoyable stroll trough beautifully maintained lanes and gardens. Although much work was being done on the exterior of the Neues Palais, to sometimes distract from the structure, our views were not hampered by the inside splendor this palace possessed.
Completed in 1769, after building was begun in 1763, after the end of the Seven Years' War. It was done during the rule of King Friedrich II and is considered to be the last great Prussian baroque palace.
A very enjoyable tour, including one of the very 1st indoor bathtubs with faucets on display. Well maintained & restored items, in spacious rooms throughout, it gave you a good idea of what it must have looked like during its heyday. One room was encrusted with shells, stones, marble, quartz and semi-precious stones on the walls.
As is our custom, Ed did all of the camcorder video filming & any narrations heard, while I did all of the still photography and chose the music you heard, then edited eveything and uploaded to You Tube, etc. And here is the required song credits:

Park of Sanssouci highlights Potsdam / Germany HD
Frederick the Great had designed a terraced garden in the Park Sanssouci with exceptionally beautiful views. Especially on summer evenings you can enjoy the most spacious landscaped gardens on a long walk. Coming through the Green Gate in the park there soon Sanssouci castle on the hill in sight, past the historic mill, stone gate, Sicilian garden, orangery, paradise garden, botanical garden, we reached the New Palace and Mopke. Bring a lot of time, because almost everywhere there is something special to see.
Friedrich der Große hatte einen Terrassengarten im Park Sanssouci mit außergewöhnlich schönen Blick konzipiert. Besonders an den Sommerabenden kann man die großzügig angelegten Gärten bei ausgedehnten Spaziergängen besonders genießen. Kommt man durch das Grüne Tor in den Park hat man auch bald das Schloss Sanssouci auf dem Hügel im Blick, vorbei an der Historischen Mühle, Felsentor, Sizilianischer Garten, Orangerie, Paradiesgarten, Botanischer Garten erreichten wir das Neue Palais und Mopke. Bringen Sie viel Zeit mit, denn fast überall gibt es etwas Besonderes zu sehen.

The palace's name emphasises this; it is a French phrase (sans souci), which translates as without concerns, meaning without worries or carefree, symbolising that the palace was a place for relaxation rather than a seat of power. The name in past times reflected a play on words, with the insertion of a comma visible between the words Sans and Souci, viz. Sans, Souci. Kittsteiner theorizes that this could be a philosophical play on words, meaning without a worry/concern or it could be some secret religious message which nobody has interpreted, left to posterity by Frederick II.
Sanssouci is little more than a large, single-story villa—more like the Château de Marly than Versailles. Containing just ten principal rooms, it was built on the brow of a terraced hill at the centre of the park. The influence of King Frederick's personal taste in the design and decoration of the palace was so great that its style is characterised as Frederician Rococo, and his feelings for the palace were so strong that he conceived it as a place that would die with him.
