The architectural glory of Dresden is gradually being restored. The most significant buildings have been replicated in the city center and the construction continues.
The opera house.
The Zwinger, a palace built for festivals and tournaments.
Heather and Dan at the Zwinger.
This courtyard with statues was the 20 square meter space which stayed
intact after the saturation bombing, no other area of the central city
survived.
This mural is made of Meissen porcelain tiles.
Inside the Hofkirche.
The Frauenkirche opened only a few months ago, there was a huge line to
get inside. You can tell which stones were original by the dark coating of
soot.
Of all things, we found a recently opened ‘’Irish Pub’’ where we had
dinner and drinks.
