Useful Informations

- Potsdam is situated south-west of Berlin (30’)

- Transport at arrival :

There exist two airports in Berlin: Schoenefeld (SXF) and Tegel (TXL). From there you can travel to Potsdam by train ("Regionalbahn") or by S-Bahn.

If you arrive in BERLIN-TEGEL (TXL) by plane:
Take the bus (X9 or 109) from the airport and go to S-Bahn (commuter train) station "Zoologischer Garten" (in brief "Zoo") or to station "Charlottenburg". Enter the S-Bahn S7 which goes to Potsdam (a trip of 45 min). Leave the train at Potsdam Hauptbahnhof (main & final station). Buses and trains in Berlin run every 10 min during day/evening times.

If you arrive in BERLIN-SCHOENEFELD (SXF) by plane:
Walk or take the shuttle bus to the train station Berlin-Schoenefeld (300 m). Take the regional train (RB train) with direction "Potsdam Hauptbahnhof" (runs every hour, leaving at xx:51, Saturday – Sunday from 08:51–20:51, Monday – Friday from 04:51–20:51)

Both trips can be covered with a single ABC ticket (meaning that it includes all three distance zones, A, B, C of Berlin) which costs €2,80 and is valid for two hours. There are automatic ticket machines with touch screen (and also English text), but you can also buy the ticket from the bus driver (at Tegel). The ABC ticket is valid within Potsdam, too.

Make SURE YOU VALIDATE YOUR TICKET bought from the automatic ticket machine by stamping it in one of the red boxes that are located on the platforms.
