Das Schloss


A look at the outside of the Schloss Kopenick. I was lucky enough to visit on a blue sky day! This is another residence of good old Freddy the great. He and his "close friend" came here to hide when they deserted their posts in the army together. Unfortunately, Fred's father didn't approve of that behaviour and had his friend decapitated and Fred was forced to watch. Luckily none of that was on display. Photo taken in April 2012.

  4. Gorgeous structure. Reading your commentary, though - whew! Maybe the good ol' days weren't so good?
