On October 31, the Steam Engine House on the Neustadt Havel Bay will open its doors for the last time this season. This extraordinary Moorish-style building houses a 19th-century engineering masterpiece: August Borsig’s steam engine, which went into operation in 1842 and once propelled the water jet of the Great Fountain in front of Sanssouci Palace to a height of 38 meters. To mark the end of the season, visitors can witness the historic machine in operation one last time before the “Mosque” goes on winter break.Translated with DeepL
