無憂宮Sanssouci Park

The Sanssouci Park is a large park in Potsdam. It contains several palaces, the most famous being the Schloss Sanssouci. The Park Sans souci was originally an orchard near Potsdam. This was the favorite retreat of Friedrich the Great. Here he could stay without worries (hence the name sans souci, which means without worry in French). In 1744 the King commissioned architect Georg Wenzeslaus von Knobelsdorff to build a summer palace, the Schloss Sanssouci (Sans souci Palace). Here he could leave all the formalities of the royal court behind and spend time on his hobbies like music and philosophy. The design of the Sanssouci Palace was based on sketches made by Friedrich the Great himself. The relatively small palace with only 12 rooms was completed in 1747. It is located on top of a terraced vineyard, known as the Weinberg.The palace is only one storey high, but beautifully decorated in rococo style.

無憂宮是波茨坦的一個大園林，其中有幾個宮殿，最為著名的是無憂宮殿。這座園林最初只是波茨坦附近的一個果園。而這里也曾是腓特烈大帝最喜愛的休息寓所。住在這里，能讓他放下一切憂慮（sans souci在法語中就是“無憂無慮”的意思）。1744年，腓特烈大帝任命建筑師克諾貝爾斯多夫修建一座避暑行宮——無憂宮。腓特烈大帝住在這里的時候可以暫時放下一切皇宮里的禮節(jié)，將時間花費在自己的愛好上。例如音樂和哲學。這座宮殿是按照腓特烈大帝自己的設計而建造的。另外一個宮殿相對較小，只有12個房間，它于1747年完工，坐落在梯形葡萄園的頂部，被稱為“溫伯格”。雖然只有一層樓高，但是它采用的卻是洛可可式建筑風格，而且裝飾得也非常漂亮。
