Dresden, Germany

  • Illuminated historic opera house at dusk

Dresden is known for its artistic treasures and baroque splendor. During the winter, festive decorations, twinkling lights and traditional Christmas markets populate the city’s historic squares and illuminate its impressive sandstone architecture. Carefully rebuilt after the devastation of World War II, Dresden has been restored to its former glory and today stands as a testament to the city’s resilience. Its remarkable landmarks, including the Frauenkirche (Church of Our Lady), the Semper Opera House and the Zwinger Palace, stand as enduring symbols of the city’s legacy.
