  • Aboard Our Airships
    Welcome aboard our airships "Take a culinary trip to Potsdam's palaces and gardens with our airships!" Buffet suggestions for groups of 100+ – 3 – Contact Banquet and Events Department Tel.: +49 331 907 75 555 Email: [email protected] A cultural paradise Potsdam's palaces and gardens Many of the palaces and parks in Potsdam have been designated UNESCO world heritage sites and are consequently some of the most popular places of interest in Brandenburg's state capital. However, Potsdam's origins can be traced back to the 10th century, when the city's foundation stone was laid in the shape of Poztupimi fort, home to a Slavic settlement. Over the centuries, the once rather sleepy fishing village gradually developed into the royal residence of the Prussian kings, which bears more than a passing resemblance to Versailles. The New Palace, Sanssouci Palace, Cecilienhof Palace and the Marble Palace in the New Garden, or Babelsberg Palace, situated in the landscape park of the same name, are just some of the numerous palaces and parks dotted around this spectacular city.

Perfect weather, to catch up with family and friends or even to go camping. A great Aussie pastime. This was also a time for me to reflect on my childhood and the Easter traditions that were so typical for a German family. Easter is a special time for German- Austrians. Apart from the Easter Egg hunt, and going to Church, it was family time and enjoying beautiful meals, often a Goose or Roast Pork on Sunday, followed by Torte or Streusel Kuchen. Oma would help in the kitchen and Opa always had a small Cognac after the meal. Sweet memories. The club had another successful April Sunday lunch, this time being entertained by Jan and the Keys and Strings. She played a great range of music which was enjoyed by all. U3A who lease our building on week days completed their 1st Semester and after 2 weeks holiday had a celebratory Dinner on Saturday the 17th April.

Potsdam is the capi- tal of the German Federal State of Brandenburg and has about 160.000 inhabitants. It is situa- ted at the river Havel. Potsdam was a residence of the Prussian kings and the German Kaiser, until 1918. Around the city there are a series of interconnected lakes and cultural landmarks, in particular the parks and palaces of Sanssouci, the largest World He- ritage Site in Germany. The Potsdam Conference, the major Post-World War II conference between the victorious Allies, was held at another palace in the area, the Ce- cilienhof.

    Edition Axel Menges GmbH Esslinger Straße 24 D-70736 Stuttgart-Fellbach tel. +49-711-574759 fax +49-711-574784 www.AxelMenges.de Schinkel, Persius, Stüler – Bauten in Berlin und Pots- dam / Buildings in Berlin and Potsdam With photographs by Hillert Ibbeken and an essay by Barry Bergdoll, 144 pp. with 120 illus., 280 x 300 mm, hard-cover, German/English ISBN 978-3-936681-72-7 Euro 49.90, £ 39.90, US$ 68.00, $A 79.00 This book is a synopsis, ƒa summary of the books also published by Edition Axel Menges about the Prussian architects Karl Fried- rich Schinkel (1781–1841), Ludwig Persius (1803–1845) and Fried- rich August Stüler (1800–1865), but it covers only the works of these architects in Berlin and Potsdam. The three books men- tioned above are subtitled »The architectural work today«; in other words, they are exclusively about buildings that still exist. This is also true of the present selection. The question whether this se- lection and limitation to Berlin and Potsdam is representative of the work of the three architects can clearly be answered in the affirmative. For Persius this question does not even arise, because during his short life he worked almost exclusively in Potsdam and its immediate vicinity – he was the »King’s architect«. Stüler’s Distributors work is found in a region extending from Cologne on the Rhine to Masuria, with some important buildings in Stockholm and Brockhaus Commission Budapest as well. About a quarter of his works can be found in Kreidlerstraße 9 Potsdam and Berlin, where Stüler, too, was the »King’s architect«.

  • Music in B Erlin September 7–14, 2015 Gendarmenmarkt Square, Berlin
    BETCHART EXPEDITIONS Inc. 17050 Montebello Road, Cupertino, CA 95014-5435 MUSIC IN B ERLIN September 7–14, 2015 Gendarmenmarkt square, Berlin Dear Traveler, Throughout its history, Berlin has been one of Germany’s musical epicenters. Eighteenth-century Berlin was considered the “Golden Age” for music making (corresponding with the coronation of Frederick II, himself a musician), and many important musical figures have lived and worked in this dynamic city, including Johann Joachim Quantz, Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach, Felix Mendelssohn, and Richard Strauss. In the 20th century, the fall of the wall turned Berlin into one of the most musically endowed places in the world—orchestras previously divided between east and west were now merged under the banner of one, unified city. This special program thoroughly immerses travelers in Berlin’s musical heritage, history, and artistic ambitions with a six-night exploration of the city combined with the opportunity to enjoy three private performances by superbly talented local chamber musicians, played at historic venues. Carefully-crafted, these personalized concerts will explore the themes of Baroque, classical, and romantic musical styles. While evenings will be spent appreciating Berlin’s classical music traditions, daytime excursions will introduce you to this splendid city, where history greets Demetrios Karamintzas and Kim Barbier perform a visitors at every turn. Delve into the city’s cultural institutions, including the famed private concert Pergamon Museum, with its unrivaled collection of ancient art and architecture, Cover: Brandenburg Gate and the Gemaldegalerie, home to one of the world’s greatest collections of 13th- to 18th-century European paintings. Berlin’s Jewish Museum, Cold War-era Brandenburg Gate, and Checkpoint Charlie all speak to the city’s tumultuous 20th-century history.
