The grounds were laid out at the end of the 17th century by Simeon Godeau in the French style of André Le Notre, and at the end of the 18th century part of the parterre was transformed partly into an English landscape garden.
In the palace grounds can be found the 1788 Belvedere teahouse by Carl Gotthard Langhans, the 1824/1825 Neapolitan villa styled New Pavillion and the 1810 mausoleum built for Queen Luise.
