Green Gate Park Sanssouci Potsdam Germany

The Green Grille is the main entrance to Sanssouci Castle Park and is located at the end of the Allee to Sanssouci. This begins as one of three beam-shaped streets on Luisenplatz. The gate was designed by Ludwig Ferdinand Hesse and was built in 1854 in connection with the construction of the Peace Church (Potsdam). The name is derived from the colour with which the grid is painted. As an additional decoration, individual struts and tips are refined with gold leaf. The iron lattice bears the initials of Frederick William IV (1795 - 1861)
