@galopelomundo: 🏛️ They look like palaces… but they were built to serve one. Standing directly opposite the magnificent Neues Palais in Potsdam, these two spectacular Baroque buildings are known as the Communs. Built between 1766 and 1769 under Frederick the Great, they were the service buildings of the royal court — housing the palace kitchens, servants, court officials and members of the entourages of royal guests. 👑 Their architecture was deliberately grand, almost palace-like, creating an impressive ensemble around the Neues Palais. More than 250 years later, their purpose has completely changed: today, these historic buildings are part of the University of Potsdam. 🎓 From serving a royal court to serving students and knowledge — an extraordinary transformation surrounded by the history of Sanssouci. 🇩🇪✨ #Potsdam #Germany #UniversityOfPotsdam
