Orangery Palace, Renaissance Revival palace in Sanssouci Park, Potsdam, Germany

The Orangery Palace features a central building with twin towers connected to a 103-meter-long Plant Hall with floor-to-ceiling windows on the south side.

King Friedrich Wilhelm IV of Prussia commissioned the construction of this palace between 1851 and 1864, with architect Friedrich August Stüler leading the project.

The Raffael Hall contains numerous Renaissance painting copies displayed on red silk walls, inherited from Friedrich Wilhelm III's collection.

The palace includes royal apartments designed in second Rococo style, with a functioning original floor duct heating system in the western hall.

The garden section includes the Paradise Garden, Norse Garden, and Sicilian Garden, each displaying different planting styles created by Peter Joseph Lenné.
