There is nothing in Worry-Free Palace (1)

When we mention the palaces and parks in Potsdam and Berlin, we will immediately think of the palaces and parks in the Potsdam and Berlin Proclamation, which will go down in history forever.

1945 In July, the allies of World War II held important meetings in the palaces and parks in Potsdam and Berlin, and on July 26th, they issued the Potsdam and Berlin Palace and Park Proclamation in the form of the United States, Britain and China, urging Japan to surrender immediately and unconditionally.

The palaces and parks in Potsdam and Berlin are to Germany what Windsor is to Britain. It is not only the venue for many important activities, but also has very beautiful scenery. The Worry-Free Palace here is also very famous, and it is a must-see for visitors to the palaces and parks in Potsdam and Berlin.

Worry-free palace (Sans? Susie? Palace), located in the northern suburbs of palaces and parks in Potsdam and Berlin, Germany, was a palace and garden in Germany in the18th century. It was built by King Frederick II of Prussia in imitation of the Palace of Versailles in France. French Sans also uses the word "worry-free" Sookie, this is the summer palace of King Frederick II of Prussia. Because the whole palace and garden are built on a sand dune, it is also called "the palace on the sand dune".

In the late autumn afternoon, on the way to the Worry-Free Palace, I think the king of Prussia should enjoy building such a summer palace and should sit back and relax! But I haven't entered the Worry-Free Palace, only to see a big black windmill standing not far from the palace gate, which is obviously out of place with the surrounding environment.

The tour guide said that the windmill was full of legends and had a headache for the emperor in the palace.

It is said that Friedrich the Great, who lived in the Worry-Free Palace at that time, hated this big, dark guy at the door and was often upset by its rotating sound.

Send someone to inquire, it turns out that the windmill belongs to a small miller. The emperor said, give them a sum of money to make this small mill disappear from here.

I never thought that the owner of a small workshop was a difficult "nail house". He doesn't want to move or give money. The emperor was very angry and ordered the windmill to be demolished.

The owner of the small mill persevered and went to court to sue. He said that his big windmill was built in the palace first, and it was already there as early as 1736. The gate of the palace was built close to his windmill, blocking the wind of the windmill, and he endured it for the emperor. Unexpectedly, the emperor forcibly dismantled the windmill without his consent, which directly hurt his private property.

In Germany, private property is inviolable. This rule continues to this day. As a result, the Berlin court at that time ruled that Friedrich the Great compensated the small mill. The emperor had to rebuild the windmill in situ and pay compensation to the small mill.

Friedrich the Great and the little miller died one after another. The mill is facing bankruptcy because of the poor management of the small miller's son.

At this time, the new miller wrote a letter to Friedrich II, expressing his willingness to sell the windmill to the new emperor.

Friedrich II thought for a long time after receiving the letter, and then sent someone to send a sum of money to the miller, with a letter saying that the windmill has now become a symbol of the German legal system. It brought the German people confidence in the national laws, so he gave the money to this small workshop, hoping that it could continue to operate.

The story of the windmill cannot be verified, and there are many versions.

However, visitors to the Carefree Palace in Potsdam can still see the legendary windmill standing in the wind of the years, as if telling the world something. ...
