It borders Potsdam and is part of the Berlin administrative district of Steglitz-Zehlendorf. The proximity to the water, the extensive greenery and the exclusive neighborhood characterize the image of this traditional district: Historic villas, spacious plots and loose development with lots of nature create a unique living experience. The proximity to the Berlin forests, numerous lakes and parks makes Wannsee a paradise for anyone who appreciates nature and tranquillity. Here, recreation close to nature, cultural diversity and urban comfort are combined in a very special way.
