Golm, University area in Potsdam, Germany

The residential district extends near the Großer Zernsee lake, featuring meadows, forests, and academic buildings spread across former military grounds.

The village name originates from Western Slavic word chulm, referring to neighboring elevations such as Reiherberg or Ehrenpfortenberg in Brandenburg.

The district contains two churches, including the Dorfkirche Golm at Geiselbergstraße 52, which currently serves as an exhibition space and Christmas market location.

The railway station connects Golm to multiple destinations including Potsdam, Wustermark, Hennigsdorf, and Berlin Brandenburg Airport through regional train services.

The area transformed from Luftwaffe barracks to Stasi academy, and now houses research facilities including the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics.
