As far the meetings venue is very close to Potsdam I would like to present this time this nice town.

 

Potsdam is the capital of the land Brandenburg , the fifth largest land in Germany with about 2.5 million people. The city center was carefully restored during the last 20 years and gives you the impression of how Friedrich the Great had his summer residence town styled. Adding to the cultural ambience, the capital city of the State of Brandenburg is a natural destination to satisfy varied interests and demands.

Potsdam's most popular site is the Schloss Sanssouci palace, located in the park to which it gives its name. However, there is far more than the former summer residency of Frederick the Great and the Sanssouci park to make your visit worthwhile. The Cecilienhof Palace( place of the Potsdam Conference in 1945), the Alexandrowka, the Holländisches Viertel (the Dutch Quarter) and the Weavers' Quarter - the historic sections of the city - provide the flair of a city steeped in European tradition.

The Babelsberg Filmpark, the Biosphäre nature experience exhibit, the National Horticulture Show park, known as the BUGA park and built for the National Horticulture Show in 2001, the tourist cruise ships, and the Krongut Bornstedt (the crown estate) are all special attractions which will make your visit to Potsdam a very pleasurable experience.
