We start is at our Marina in 14471 Potsdam. We cruise upriver to downtown Potsdam, the port and the theatre will pass by. Now we come to the Deep Lake. Park of Babelsberg Castle passes on starboard. The many castles on the bank are part of the UNESCO cultural heritage. As we cross under the Glienicke Bridge - the Spy Bridge -, Babelsberg Castle greets us from the hill opposite. Klein-Glienicke Castle passes on starboard. Enjoy the wide view over the Jungfernsee. The royal pier 'Kongsnaes' lies on the port side. Now we are heading to Cecilienhof Castle. History was written here: in 1945, the Allies negotiated the Potsdam Treaty. Several historic buildings and villas line the shore here. After a turnaround we set course for the Peacock Island. Before that we pass the Sacrower Heilandskirche. The first attempts at wireless telegraphy took place here in 1897. After we have passed the ferry station at Pfaueninsel, the island passes by on the port side. Unfortunately, nothing is left of the secret laboratory of the glassmaker and alchemist Johann Kunckel. Around 1685 he researched here the production of crystal glass and invented gold ruby glass. Now the wide expanse of water of the Havel opens up in front of us. After a quick look at the Wannsee with the many villas and sailing yachts on the shore, we turn around and head for our home dock.
