Glienicke Palace, Neoclassical palace in Wannsee, Germany

The palace stands near the Havel River with a south frontage adorned by two golden lion statues modeled after the Medici lions of Rome.

Karl Friedrich Schinkel designed this residence around 1825 for Prince Carl of Prussia, transforming a simple cottage into a summer palace.

The interior rooms contain antique objects collected by Prince Carl during his travels, reflecting the collecting practices of Prussian nobility.

The palace opens from Tuesday to Sunday, with adult admission at 5 euros and reduced entry at 4 euros for viewing the historical rooms.

The structure forms part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site Palaces and Parks of Potsdam and Berlin, recognized for its Prussian landscape architecture.
