Guided Story
Imagine standing in a hunting lodge that once hosted Berlin's elite. Turn around and take in the intricate details of its facade. Right here, near the Glienicke Bridge, where East met West, grand parties were held in the lavish halls. Look west, and you can almost see the elegant horse-drawn carriages rolling through the Glienicke Palace gardens. It's said that King Friedrich Wilhelm III often visited to escape the city's hustle and bustle. As you soak in the aura of the past, remember, this château is not just an architectural gem but a silent witness to history.
