    Vor Ort sind auch kostenlose Parkplätze vorhanden. Man kommt mit einer Fähre auf die Insel. Die Kosten sind angemessen, pro Person 4 Euro (Erwachsener). Das Gelände ist perfekt zum spazieren gehen, zum verweilen und entspannen.

    Zurzeit wird restauriert: Deshalb kann man das Schloss jetzt nur von außen besichtigen; ich war schon drinnen, die Böden knarrten - man hatte wenig Geld und baute nicht aus Stein, sondern malte außen Steine an. Der Holzbau unterliegt stärker der Witterung, als ein Steinbau. Ein weißer Traum im Grünen, wo sich der dicke Wilhelm und seine Geliebte Enke treffen konnten; er adelte sie, und sie ließ sich früh auf Reisen bilden & ausbilden - so traf sie die höfische Gesellschaft auf Augenhöhe hier. Meine Skizze zeigt das Schloss von außen. Besonders schön vom Wasser aus zu sehen!

    Really lovely place to visit in a warm day. There are several interesting buildings to see (you get a map in the ferry, and anyway the island is small). Perfect place for a picnic.

    (Translated by Google) The peacock island is an oasis to feel good. The first no smoking island. Absolutely clean and well maintained. Even the bus ride from Messe Nord there is an experience. We recommend. (Original) Die Pfaueninsel ist ein Oase zum Wohl fühlen. Die erste Nichtraucherinsel. Absolut sauber und gepflegt. Selbst die Busfahrt von Messe Nord dort hin ist ein Erlebnis. Sehr zu empfehlen.

    If you have many days in Berlin or if you live in Berlin then I recommend to visit this place. It’s lovely to walk around, have a wurst and just look at the beautiful peacocks passing by. Take the whole day to enjoy this place. Beware of the Bus! It takes a lot to arrive, sometimes it doesn’t arrive and you have to walk A LOT to get to the nearest bus station.

    Die Insel ist sehr gepflegt. Man bemüht sich den Ort so zu belassen wir er einst war. Ich komme hier mit Gästen seit Jahren zu Besichtigung und es ist immer wie ich es zuletzt gesehen habe. Zur Zeit werden einige Instandsetzungsarbeiten durchgeführt, weshalb die "Schlossattrappe" vollständig verhüllt sei. Die anderen Bauten sind jedoch gut erhalten und können (von Außen) besichtigt werden. Eigentlich ist die Schönheit der Insel den weiträumigen Sichtfeldern und der Umgebung zu verdanken. Wer Sehenswürdigkeiten sucht findet hier eigentlich nur eine - die Insel selbst.

    Really nice little day trip from Berlin on a sunny day. Lots of good spots to take pictures or just enjoy the nature. The peacocks that roam around arent exactly tame but are nice enough to let you get close enough for a good shot.

    Such a beautiful place to spend a day hiking, doing picnic and enjoying nature at its best. Plenty of peacocks walking around and if you are lucky you will see one dancing.

    Sehr schöne Insel, die Erholung beginnt schon auf der Fähre. Die Wege sind recht gut ausgeschildert, gestaltete Blumenbeete, Rabatten und naturbelassener Wald wechseln sich ab, wunderschönene alte Bäume sind zu entdecken. Die Gebäude sind restauriert, das Schloss ist zur Zeit in der Restauration. Absolutes Highlight waren die Pfauen, wir hatten das große Glück und durften einen Pfau in voller Pracht bestaunen.

    (Translated by Google) The castle on Pfaueninsel looks so impressive. There are 30 free-range peacocks on the island. They hide very well in strong sun. But when you run into one, you should keep your food together. Especially that of the children. The animals then come very close and would “pug” you out of your hand. The crossing costs p.p. 4 euros or as a family a total of 8 euros. For us a great retreat and another very beautiful park in our region. (Original) Das Schloss auf der Pfaueninsel sieht so imposant aus. Es leben 30 freilaufenden Pfauen auf der Insel. Bei starker Sonne verstecken sie sich sehr gut. Wenn man aber auf einen trifft, sollte man sein Essen gut zusammen halten. Vor allem das der Kinder. Die Tiere kommen dann sehr nah und würde es einen auch aus der Hand „mopsen“. Die Überfahrt kostet p.P. 4Euro oder als Familie ingesamt 8Euro. Für uns ein toller Rückzugsort und ein weiterer sehr schöner Park in unserer Region.

    If you looking for a place away from the busy city, then peacock island is perfect. You can find a small castle with peacocks roaming around. (castle will be renovated until 2024 and is closed until then.)

    Peacock Island in itself should not be missed. We spend a peaceful, relaxing day here. The castle was not open but there for photos. There were other castle like buildings along the walking path all fascinating. We loved the peacock farm where we git the first glimps of peacocks. We thought we missed them with us being there in winter but at the end of our hike, there they were, mingling with all the visitors. Quite an unforgettable experience.

  • 5/5 Anand M. 4 years ago on Google • 121 reviews
    One of the most beautiful places in Berlin, it's highly recommend to visit for a relaxing family time. Can take S7 from Alexanderplatz and go to the Wansee and take bus 217 to peacock island, then a ferry, which takes one min to reach. There's a really good spot for picnic for family in between.

    Don't get tricked by the images, the architecture is pretty average and some parts are painted to look like huge bricks. However, the island tour is definitely a good thing. Enjoy the friendly peacocks, walking around with you.

    Beautiful and calm and relaxing place to spend a weekend. Peacocks walk freely on the island.

    If you're looking for a quite and relaxing spot when you're in Berlin, you'll love this place. A nice park with old trees, peacocks wondering around, rose gardens, castle and a nice picknik area with German beer!

  • 5/5 Merlin M. 5 years ago on Google
    A small castle on a small island in the middle of the countryside outside Berlin. A wonderfully relaxing place that's so different from the austere capital nearby. Truly wonderful and well worth a visit.

  • 5/5 H O. 4 years ago on Google
    A must if you visit Betlin or Potsdam. No cars or bikes allowed on the island though. Water buffalos in the summer. Clean and quite. An oasis.

  • 3/5 Aditya M. 4 years ago on Google
    Public transportation is severely lacking. It's a good place to relax with family.

  • 4/5 Rocío A. 4 years ago on Google
    The castle is closed for restorations until further notice. The island itself is very pleasant and relaxing, good for a day trip from Berlin.

  • 3/5 Jędrzej B. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) A magical place. Island nature reserve but the palace itself is only a skeleton. For this partly demolished. Worth a visit because of the island's charm. In addition, it is surrounded by beautiful gardens, and peacocks walk around. (Original) Miejsce magiczne. Wyspa rezerwat przyrody ale sam pałac to tylko szkielet. Do tego częściowo zburzony. Warto odwiedzić ze względu na urok wyspy. Dodatkowo otoczony jest pięknymi ogrodami, a dookoła chodzą pawie.

    (Translated by Google) Pure ferry crossing tick already tackles a tense expectation. Expecting beautiful snooty peacocks, dry meadows without raindrops, not delicately described instruction of different ways ... People do not feel isolated when they enter the island. With importers, it would be much easier for those who follow them to be comfortable where they belong to themselves. Once a dreamlike trip brings something, if you can jogging fast, because no car no bicycles on the island may be seen. After all, very nice with everyone (Original) Reine Fährüberfahrt tick tackt schon eine gespannte Erwartung. Davon erwartet schönen hochnäsigen Pfauen, vertrockneten Wiesen ohne Regentropfen, nicht fein geschilderter Anweisung der verschiedenen Wege... Leute fühlen sich eigentlich nicht isoliert, wann die auf die Insel eintreten. Mit Einführer würde es viel viel leichter, daß mitlaufende sich angenehme dorthin seien, wo die zu sich selber gehören. Einmal traumhaft Ausflug bringt schon etwas, wenn man schnell Jogging kann, weil no Auto keine Fahrräder auf der Insel zu sehen seien darf. Immerhin sehr schöne mit allen
