Chronicles of Dresden
Dresden, a city of rich history, was founded in the 13th century as a small Slavic settlement. Over the centuries, it evolved into a Baroque and Rococo city, with the Zwinger Palace and Frauenkirche becoming iconic symbols of its architectural heritage. After World War II, Dresden underwent extensive reconstruction, and today it proudly showcases a blend of old and new architecture. The city's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its vibrant art scene, with numerous museums, galleries, and festivals celebrating its rich history and cultural diversity.

💡 Book via the mytaxi app for a fixed price; avoid airport touts charging over 35 EUR.
