Wildpark Potsdam, Forest park in Potsdam, Germany

The 875-hectare forest expands from Pirschheide to Lake Templin, containing numerous walking paths and native animal observation areas.

The park originated in 1840 as a royal hunting ground, with architect Ludwig Persius designing three forest houses at its perimeter in 1842.

The park structures display Italian and Norman architectural styles, featuring the Wildmeisterei building as the central administrative point.

Three entrance gates provide access to the park: South Gate, Sanssouci Gate, and North Gate near the Kuhfort House.

The Wildmeisterei building, established in 1842, now houses a forest school and local forestry office, promoting environmental education.
