Dairy in the New Garden

The Dairy in the New Garden (Alte Meierei) is a historic building located in Potsdam, Germany.

[1] In the course of laying out the landscape garden and building the Marble Palace under Frederick William II of Prussia, a dairy was built to supply the royal court.

Cows grazing on the surrounding land produced milk for the manufacture of butter and cheese.

In 1928 a restaurant was established in the building[1] that became one of the most popular destinations for day trippers in Potsdam until the Second World War.

In 1991, after the Wende, renovation and restoration measures were carried out on the old building and, in 2003, it was able to re-open as a brewery and restaurant (Gasthausbrauerei).
