Dresden has the air of being a pavilion of pleasure, in which all of architecture's most delightful ideas and inspirations meld into an entity. Johann Michael von Loen 1750
Dresden is a city formed by a river - the Elbe. It has formed the landscape framing the city: gentle rising hills and, beyond them, the mountains of Saxony.
The beauty of the city is complemented by its charmingly comfort-loving lifestyle.
Zwinger Palace
The crowned gateway, the pavilions, the Nymphenbad fountain and the numerous sandstone sculptures depicting fairies and angels, as well as the water basins and columns combine to make this one of the most beautiful masterpieces of European Baroque
Frauenkirche
Instantly recognizable by its mighty domed roof, the Frauenkirche is one of Dresden’s outstanding landmarks and the finest example of Baroque church architecture in Germany.

The Semper Opera House is one of Dresden’s best-known historical buildings and one of the most prestigious opera houses in Europe.
