In Potsdam, begin by visiting the extraordinary Neues Palais (New Palace), a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Once the summer home of Frederick the Great, Sanssouci Palace will overwhelm you in its grandeur.

As Rudy suggests, some historical sites are better experienced at night, such as the Bebelplatz Memorial, where you can ponder a serious moment in history.
