The Potsdam Conference was held at Cecilienhof, the home of Crown Prince Wilhelm, in Potsdam, occupied Germany, from 17 July to 2 August 1945.

Stalin, Churchill, and Truman gathered to decide how to administer the defeated Nazi Germany, which had agreed to unconditional surrender nine weeks earlier, on 8 May (V-E Day. The goals of the conference also included the establishment of post-war order, peace treaty issues, and countering the effects of the war.
