28_The New Palace.jpg

Commissioned by King Frederick the Great (Friedrich II) to celebrate the end of the Seven Years' War, the New Palace was built in the Sanssouci Park 1763–1769.
It's in Late Prussian Baroque and Rococo style, often called the last great Prussian Baroque palace.
The palace features over 200 rooms, four banqueting halls, a theater, and ornate interiors like the Grotto Hall and Marble Hall.
