Palais Lichtenau, Royal residential palace in Nördliche Innenstadt, Potsdam, Germany.

The Palais Lichtenau stands as a three-story neoclassical building with a symmetrical facade and large windows across its principal elevation in central Potsdam.

Commissioned by Frederick William II in 1796, architects Michael Philipp Daniel Boumann and Carl Gotthard Langhans designed this palace for Wilhelmine Enke, later Countess Lichtenau.

The palace represents the architectural preferences of late 18th-century Prussian nobility, featuring refined interior decorations and carefully proportioned classical elements.

Located at Behlertstraße 32, the palace currently houses a dermatology center and serves as an event venue for private celebrations.

The palace maintained a direct line of sight with the Marble Palace in the New Garden, connecting the residences of Frederick William II and his companion.
