König Friedrich Wilhelm II. ließ 1794 für sich und seine Geliebte Wilhelmine Encke, die spätere Gräfin Lichtenau, ein ländliches Lustschloss auf der Pfaueninsel errichten. Der mit Holzbohlen verkleidete Fachwerkbau wirkt wie die romantische Kulisse einer Ruine und wurde auch als „verfallenes römisches Landhaus" bezeichnet.

Die Entdeckung der Südseeinsel Tahiti 20 Jahre vor dem Schlossbau und die bald darauf erschienene und begeistert in der ganzen Welt aufgenommene Inselbeschreibung des Franzosen Louis-Antione Bougainville inspirierten auch den sinnlichen Genüssen zugänglichen König: Er holte sich die scheinbar unerreichbare Südsee-Exotik in Form des „Otaheitischen Kabinetts“ ins preußische Schloss. Das fantasiereich als Bambushütte ausgemalte Turmzimmer mit fremdländischen Pflanzen und farbenprächtigen Pfauen gibt palmengesäumte Blicke auf die reale Welt frei. Im Kontrast dazu überrascht die prächtige frühklassizistische Inneneinrichtung mit den Möbeln, Tapeten, Schnitzereien und Fußböden. Sie ist weitgehend original erhalten und vermittelt ein authentisches Bild höfischer Wohnkultur um 1800.

Friedrich Wilhelm III. und seine Gemahlin Königin Luise nutzten später das Schloss als Sommersitz – und holten wirklich Palmen auf die Insel. Ab 1818 erhielt Peter Joseph Lenné den Auftrag, die Insel zu einem Landschaftsgarten umzugestalten. Eine Anzahl weiterer Bauten kam hinzu, wie das Palmenhaus (1880 abgebrannt) und das Kavalierhaus...

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...

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.

Decisamente uno dei posti più belli nei dintorni di Berlino. Ci sono relativamente pochi turisti che vanno a visitare l'isola dove si trova il castello, per questo è sicuramente un posto tranquillo per passare una mezza giornata. Inoltre i pavoni presenti sull'isola si muovono liberamente: ottima occasione per fare foto e vedere gli animali da vicino. Per raggiungere l'isola c'è un bus che porta direttamente al luogo in cui attracca il traghetto (dovrebbe essere il bus 218). Al luogo dell'attracco si trovano due biglietterie automatiche molto comode; il prezzo del biglietto è 6 euro (quello intero) e vale decisamente la spesa. Meglio portarsi dietro dell'acqua: il bar vicino alla fermata la vende ma a prezzi molto alti e anche il negozio sull'isola non è da meno. I tempi di attesa del traghetto sono relativamente brevi visto che fa spola, avanti e indietro, da terra ferma all'isola. Consigliabile abbinare la visita alla crociera dei sette laghi che parte da Wannsee.
