Embark on the Potsdam Audio Tour: Echoes and Enigmas of the Northern Old Town

In the heart of Potsdam, soaring columns and shattered spires whisper secrets of power, loss, and ambition along every street. Wander with this self-guided audio tour and unlock layers of history hidden behind imposing domes and reconstructed facades, exploring the city’s battles, mysteries, and forgotten moments that even locals have never heard.

Which shadowy alliance at the Brandenburg State Parliament nearly altered the fate of a kingdom overnight? Why did the thunderous bells of St. Nikolai halt a revolution before it began? What unfinished business lingers in the echoing halls of the Garrison Church, long after the final congregation departed?

Move through corridors of intrigue, under vibrant mosaics and past ghostly ruins, tracing footsteps of revolutionaries and rulers alike. Discover Potsdam’s living history as it cracks through the pavement, urgent and alive beneath your feet.

Hit play and let the city reveal what its stones have guarded for centuries.
