I don't know about an apartment in town other than his rooms in the Town Palace, but I do know that he lived in D'Argens' house for a while, which doesn't exist anymore but was to the south of this map section, at the Havel bay and next to the place where FW4 later built the Dampfmaschinenhaus to finally power the Sanssouci fountains (that one still exists). (The modern Voltaireweg looks like it might be right in the place where training maneuvers used to be held.)

One more map! This one has the Marquis d'Argens house at Zeppelinstrasse 167 in the south; just north of it, a tiny circle representing the George Keith, Lord Marischal house (still standing) at Lennéstrasse 9, plus our Sanssouci (Fritz's house :P), Voltaireweg, pack of dogs house at Jägerhof, and Jacob-von-Gundling-straße!



And you wonder why I'm way behind on Rheinsberg write-ups. :P

:D

Also on this map: Krongut Bornstedt, northwest of Sanssouci, which is where Gundling and De Catt were buried, among many others (church and graveyard are across the street from the Krongut). And the Town Palace was (and now is again) right below the word "Barberini" (the new museum) to the right.

Neat!

Barberini: Not our Barbarina/Barbarini, [personal profile] cahn, but an unrelated 17th century palace in Rome that the Potsdam Barberini palace was modeled on and named after in the 1770s. Though Wikipedia notes that Barbarina the dancer may have gotten mixed up in the popular imagination with the Roman palace as the reason for the name.
