What to expect
Schlossplatz
The main gateway to Dresden, at the foot of the Augustus Bridge, the Castle Square is suurounded by the Royal Palace, the Catholic Cathedral and the first Saxon Parliament building. It also leads up to the Brühl's Terrace atop the former fortifications.
Katholische Hofkirche
The Royal Cathedral of Dresden is a magnificent structure. Built in secret by a catholic ruler in protestant Saxony, the former court church has some unusual features and is one of the burial sites of the Royal family. We will see it from the outside and learn its interesting story.
Procession of Princes
100 metres long, 24,000 thousand tiles, the longest porcelain artwork in the world. There are secrets and stories hidden within it. See if you can spot them!
Theaterplatz
The Theaterplatz of Dresden is where the city comes together to make its voice heard. Dominated by the imposing Semperopera, the square is enclosed by the Royal Palace, The Cathedral and Old Masters Gallery and considered by many to be one of the most beautiful squares of Europe. You will see the State Opera from outside during the walking tour of the historic city centre and learn about its history, its architecture and its importance.
The Dresden Zwinger
It is considered a sculpture you can experience and was conceptualized as the entrance to a grand new royal palace that was never built. It is a reminder of the exotic and fantastic parties once held here 300 years ago.
Frauenkirche Dresden
This is the symbol of Dresden, the personification of Dresden's rising from the ashes. You will learn its story and time permitting we can go in for a quick visit.
Dresden Castle
Built, burnt down, rebuilt. Repaired and extended, burnt, rebuilt. The Royal Palace is an eclectic guardian of the history of the family that ruled Saxony and is home to their astounding collection of treasures. You will be guided through the Palace with the sumptuous, recently restored State Rooms and other thematically diverse collections. This is not to be missed! Please keep in mind that the Royal Castle is closed on Tuesdays.
