Sanssouci Palace, located in Potsdam, Germany, was the summer palace of Frederick the Great, King of Prussia. Built between 1745 and 1747, the palace is an example of the Rococo style and features a mix of French and Prussian architectural influences. The name "Sanssouci" translates to "without worries," reflecting Frederick's desire for a relaxed and carefree atmosphere.

The palace features numerous rooms, including the ornate Marble Hall, which was used for concerts and gatherings, and the Chinese Room, which was decorated in the chinoiserie style. The palace's stunning gardens and terraces were designed by Frederick himself, and include a vineyard, an orangery, and numerous fountains and statues.
