Oranienburg Urban beauty with (memory) culture

There are many palaces in Brandenburg, but the palace in the heart of Oranienburg is one of the most important baroque buildings in the country. It was built for Princess Luise Henriette of Orange, the first wife of the great Elector Frederick William and the city's namesake. Today, the palace houses two museums with important works of art and royal silverware. The adjacent palace park promises variety for the whole family with its varied playground, landscape art and garden rooms, as well as the orangery as a venue for events. But the culture of remembrance is also writ large in Oranienburg: Today, the Sachsenhausen Memorial and Remembrance Site recalls the gloomy urban histories of the Nazi and Soviet eras. With its location along the Havel River, Oranienburg also invites you to take an extensive walk along the water - at the castle harbor, along the Oranienburg Canal or on the shores of Lake Lehnitz.
