The Chinese House, located in Sanssouci Park, Potsdam, is a stunning example of Chinoiserie architecture, designed by Johann Gottfried Büring. Commissioned by Frederick the Great in the mid-18th century, this ornate pavilion reflects the European fascination with Chinese art and design during the Rococo period. Its construction spanned from 1755 to 1764, a period extended due to the impact of the Seven Years' War on Prussia's finances. Today, it stands as a testament to the era's cultural exchange and the historical allure of Sanssouci Park.
