    Tips

    April 6, 2024

    Since 1997, a ferry has again connected the southern terminus of Dresden's S-Bahn line 1 with the Czech town of Hřensko/Herrnskretschen on the right bank of the Elbe.

    A ferry was already mentioned here in the 14th century. It gained particular importance after the construction and commissioning of the railway line through the Elbe valley from Dresden/Drážďany to Podmokly/Bodenbach in 1851. As a result of the Second World War, ferry service ended in 1945 and was re-established in 1997.

      Super fast connection between the two sides of the Elbe!

          Owners of a Deutschlandticket can use the ferries free of charge.
