📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

The numerous historical castles and parks in the Berlin-Brandenburg region are managed and preserved by the Prussian Castle and Garden Foundation. The town of Potsdam, with its historical assets (such as the Sanssouci Castle and its grounds) is one of the central points of this cultural landscape, which has been developing for over 300 years. You will be involved in the extensive gardening work in the Park Sanssouci and can get a strong insight into this diverse field of work. In the Charlottenhof Park, which was created in 1883 by P. J. Lenné, you will help to maintain paths, flowerbeds and lawns in order to sustain the garden’s current beauty. Through your different contributions in the parks, you will learn about the many diverse aspects of garden and park facilities. There is an additional administration fee of 50 € for participants who are not from Germany.
