Dresden is the ancient capital of Saxony (and the capital of today ' s Saxony Federal Land) on the Elbe River. Today, Dresden is also the centre of high-tech industry, in particular the AMD processors and the Volkswagen Phaeton vehicles.

I wonder if the famous Saxon porcelain was made in Dresden, too. There is also a system of gymnastics education which, in a modified form, exists today in Russia.

Finally, Dresden is a broad-based Elba, where it is so pleasant to go out tonight on the old boat, it's a saxon kitchen with its sustenance and strength, a thin saxon wine and a funny saxon dialect. ♪ ♪

City history

The name of Dresden is derived from the word " dredzane " , " wet forests " . In the mid-Sixteenth century, the Slavics resettle and build several settlements. The official date of Dresden is 1206. For eight centuries, the city, like the bird of Fenix, burned in flames and revived to life before it was. In 1632, half of the city ' s population suffered from plague, and in 1685 the fire destroyed almost the entire city, only 23 houses out of 357. Some of the city ' s sights have been rebuilt, rebuilt, destroyed and rebuilt with purely German perseverance and not once.

Apogee deconstruction occurs during the period of August Silny (1694-1733) and his son, Kurfürst Friedrich August II (1733-1763). Dresden is built by shiny barocco buildings and becomes a European-level cultural centre. In 1806, King Friedrich August I declared Dresden the Royal Capital and his residence. At the end of the Second World War, Dresden was a victim of allied aircraft: from 13 to 14 February 1945, British and American bombers dropped 3,500 tons of incendiary and fugas bombs that completely burned the historic part of the city. The reconstruction process has been long and difficult, but today almost nothing resembles the horrors of war.

In August 2002, the forces of nature had already collapsed on the long-suffering capital of Saxony. An unprecedented flood has flooded the city, the water in Elbe has risen to record.

9.4 meters! Nevertheless, the city continues to attract tourists with its beauty, sophisticated architecture and aristocracy ball.

MAIN ACCESS

The viewing of the sights has traditionally started with the Theatral Square, where the remarkable building of the Dresden Opera is being painted. It's the center of the city, there's a lot of historic blocks around it. There's Zwinger. These are impressive pavilion sizes, or more precisely a few pavilions, which began in 1709 and ended in 1733, and the tides continued for decades. Zwinger is a saxon barocco, which is a fabulous architecture and decorative sculpture, which is the building that Saxony envied all of Europe in due course.

There are several major museums, including the Old Master Gallery, Alte Meister, who are erroneously known as the Dresden Gallery. It is in this gallery that the " Sikstin Madonna " Rafael and the richest gathering of Rembrandt, as well as Italians, small Dutchmen and many other masterpieces.

A little distance from Zwinger is a huge Renaissance building, a residence of the royal dynasty of the Wettins who ruled Saxony longer than any other royal dynasty in Germany.

Elba's dock has been through Brule's terrace, which in Dresden is called the Balcon Europe.

Dresden's museums are numerous and diverse. You must visit the magnificent meeting of the porcelain (Museum of Pharmaceutical, Museum of Old Measuring Instruments (Fizico-Matematical Salon), weapons and armours (Munitions Chamber), kustkamer and jewel museums, Noumistic Museum and Transport Museums.
