The former Yenidze tobacco factory is one of Dresden's most extraordinary buildings: Built in 1909 in the style of a mosque to circumvent regulations for factory buildings, it once served as a production site for oriental cigarettes. Today, its magnificent dome commemorates this era—and its roof terrace offers one of the most beautiful views of the city.

"The former factory building of the Yenidze cigarette factory is one of the architectural sights of the city of Dresden. It is located on Weißeritzstrasse on the eastern edge of Friedrichstadt, not far from the congress center. The building, which was built from 1908 to 1909 in the style of a mosque, has a total height of 62 meters and is used today as an office building. " Wikipedia

There is a fairytale theater and a restaurant under the dome. In summer you can sit here on the roof terrace.
