    Memorial stone in honor of Albert Einstein, who lived in Caputh from 1929 to 1932 his summer house.
    Translated by
    The Einsteinhaus is a wooden house built in 1929 in Caputh, around six kilometers south of Potsdam.
    It was inhabited from 1929 to 1932 by Albert Einstein and his wife Elsa as well as their two daughters and a domestic worker.
    It was a summer house, but was used almost all year round, with the exception of the cold winter months.
    In May of the Einstein year 2005, the building was reopened as a venue for events and sightseeing after restoration work.

    At Einstein's time, Caputh had around 3,000 inhabitants, mainly from small businesses, such as fruit growing, fishing and handicrafts.

    Einstein felt very comfortable in Caputh. It was the tranquility, the lakes and the wonderful forests that, regardless of the season, stimulated him to take long, lonely hikes.

    Not much has changed in this unique Havel landscape to date. The scenic diversity around Caputh and the Havel lakes still invite you to hike, relax and change.
