East of the Alexandrowka colony is a large park, the New Garden (Neuer Garten), which was laid out from 1786 in the English style. The site contains two palaces; one of them, the Cecilienhof, was where the Potsdam Conference was held in July and August 1945. The Marmorpalais (Marble Palace) was built in 1789 in the style of classicism. Nearby is the Biosph�re Potsdam, a tropical botanical garden.
Another interesting district of Potsdam is Babelsberg, a quarter south-east of the centre, housing the UFA film studios (Babelsberg Studios), and an extensive park with some historical buildings, including the Babelsberg Palace (Schlo� Babelsberg, a neo-Gothic palace designed by Schinkel).
The Albert Einstein Science Park is the sight of the Einstein Tower, which is on the top of the Telegraphenberg within an astronomy compound.
