Augustus Bridge (Augustusbrücke)

The first mention was made in 1287. Later under August the Strong, the bridge was rebuilt in the Baroque style between 1727 and 1731 and rebuilt in its current form between 1907 and 1910. It was destroyed in World War II, but rebuilt.

Dresden Zwinger

Highlight • Historical Site

The museums in the Zwinger are very interesting and the inner courtyard invites you to linger when the weather is nice. What's good: Once you have paid admission, you can visit the Old Masters Picture Gallery, the Mathematical-Physical Salon and the Porcelain Collection as well as all current special exhibitions.

Neumarkt in Dresden

Highlight • Historical Site

After the devastation of the war and the removal of rubble, the area was a huge wasteland for more than half a century.
In the immediate vicinity of the rebuilt Frauenkirche, the Neumarkt with its adjacent quarters and historic streets is now experiencing a rebirth - in a mix of modern architecture and reconstructed facades.

This time not a tour, as usual in nature, but a city tour into the full life of the vibrant twelfth largest city in Germany, to Dresden. The tram took you from one of the numerous suburbs quickly and cheaply to the center of the metropolis. With glorious weather, you could explore all the well-known sights in a very small …

Today it was Dresden's turn! Our friends showed us a really great sightseeing tour through their hometown, followed by a meal. (Komoot was a bit off, and part of the way we walked isn't even on the map.) In addition to the truly impressive buildings, we visited the Green Vault with its fantastic treasures! We also visited the Picture Gallery …

We all got a good look at the old town with its sights on this first round. 😊
They come in quick succession and have to be careful not to overlook one 😉
The ascent to the Frauenkirche is worth it! Such a beautiful panoramic view over Dresden lets you really see the city.

September 9, 2022,2022 Dresden Tag 1 - kreuz und quer durch die Innenstadt

On our first day in Dresden we just let ourselves drift. After the first impressions (castle and procession of princes) we visited the chocolate museum. There you can learn a lot about chocolate and its deep roots in Dresden - and of course you can also buy some delicious and unusual varieties in the shop.
