Sanssouci, meaning "without concern," was Frederick the Great's summer palace, renowned for its Rococo architecture and beautifully landscaped gardens. The palace and its terraced vineyards reflect the king's desire for a private haven, while the expansive park features numerous buildings, each with its own charm and history.
