This bridge between Berlin and Potsdam spans the Havel River to connect the cities of Potsdam and Berlin near Klein Glienicke. It was completed in 1907. The bridge was used to exchange spies.
The Glienicke Bridge is a bridge across the Havel River in Germany, connecting the Wannsee district of Berlin with the Brandenburg capital, Potsdam. It is named after nearby Glienicke Palace. The current bridge, the fourth on the site, was completed in 1907, although major reconstruction was necessary after it was damaged during World War II.

A beautiful park with a Gothic-style palace, several nature paths, and a few other historical landmarks. It is also part of the World Heritage site. A university housing complex is placed here, so expect some students. From the park, you can cross a bridge into Klein Glienicke, where you could, by foot, walk to Schloss Glienicke and Jagdschloß Glienicke in Berlin.
Marmorpalais
Neuer Garten
Stroll around New Garden (part of the UNESCO world heritage ensemble), on the banks of the river Havel. Spanning an area of 102 hectares, this park was created in 1787 by Friedrich Wilhelm II in contrast to the Baroque Park Sanssouci. It borders with two lakes, and hosts the Marble Palace and the Palace Cecilienhof. It was here that Attlee, Stalin and Truman met for the Potsdam Conference, at the end of World War II.
Schloss Cecilienhof
Gedenk- und Begegnungsstätte Ehemaliges KGB-Gefängnis Potsdam
Memorial and meeting place at the former KGB prison. From August 1945 it was occupied by Soviet forces. It was reconstructed as a prison for counterintelligence. Today it's been left standing to remind people of the depressing reality of dictatorships.
Walk around the picturesque south bank of lake Griebnitz, and into the streets of Neubabelsberg - a typical German 'Villenkolonie' of the Belle Epoque. Many of the grand homes' Jewish occupants were evicted by the Nazis, who then moved in themselves.
