Music from the romantic for early birds on seven sleepers day
Garden Marshall-Keith-House / Address: Lennéstraße 9, 14471 Potsdam
A DAY WITH LENNÉ (seven sleepers day): What would Potsdam's gardens be without Peter Joseph Lenné? He not only left wonderful creations, which we still enjoy in Sanssouci and in the New Garden, in Glienicke, on Peacock Island, in Petzow and in many other places, he also came up with the master plan of turning the "island" of Potsdam into a green countryside paradise. This is why this whole day shall be dedicated to him and his gardens. A resounding homage to one of the greatest garden artist and landscape designers of his era who did not only create small paradises for kings but also the most beautiful of habitats for everyone!

description
Lenné did not have his official residence in the lord marshal's building but very close by, in the House of the Garden Administration. The first thing he saw in the morning was Sanssouci Palace with its vineyard terraces. Indulge in the same luxury today and what is more, the cosy al fresco breakfast also features romantic choir sounds. What a weekend!
