Small Boutique hotels in DRESDEN

The majesty of the capital of the state of Saxony in the east of Germany is dazzling. Dresden treasures years of history since its founding in the 12th century. Although its flowering occurred in the sixteenth century when Saxony became one of the Protestant States with greater weight of the Holy Roman Empire, its great splendor was reached under the reign of Federico Augusto in the seventeenth century, and translates into a lavish baroque legacy.

The river Elba crosses the city, hence it is known as "the Florence of the Elbe". On one bank sits the old town, Altstadt, and on the other the Neustadt.

Various notable religious buildings such as the Frauenkirge or the Hofkirche were destroyed after World War II, but their reconstruction with total fidelity has preserved them. The wonderful mural of Fürstenzug does not go unnoticed. The "Mosaic of the parade of the princes" on a facade from the nineteenth century, is more than a hundred meters long and represents the history of the House of Wettin.

Semperoper is one of the best operas in Germany. Here the works of Wagner and Strauss premiered in the 19th century. Visit the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister in the old baroque Zwinger palace, a gallery with the great masters of European painting. Wonderful little hotels of classic luxury also stand out as highlights.
