This is a beautiful coffee table book  about the City of Potsdam. Potsdam captivates the beholder with its magnificent cultural backdrop. for over two-and-half centuries, Potsdam was the royal seat of the Brandenburg electoral princes of Prussian kings and German emperors.

In 1990, UNESCO included the palaces and gardens of Potsdam in its list of natural and cultural world heritage, the highest international honour for a cultural monument worth of conservation. Potsdam's collected pieces de resistance are beautifully presented in this book of photographs.
