Dresden is a city where history, art and science meet in museum halls and palace interiors. A walk through the local expositions turns an ordinary trip into a real discovery: the palace collections coexist with the natural science collections, and each hall preserves its atmosphere and history, ready to tell about the past of Europe.
In the city you can visit the Dresden Zoological Museum with its historical collections, the Gruness Gevelbe Museum, founded by August the Strong in 1723, with impressive treasures and jewelry rarities, the German Museum of Hygiene (Museum of Man), which presents expositions about the body and medicine, as well as the Dresden Ethnographic Museum in the Japanese Palace with collections from different parts of the world. The Military History Museum of the German Armed Forces reveals pages of military history with extensive artifacts, the Porcelain Museum in Zwinger, founded in 1715, shows masterpieces of Meissen porcelain, the Albertinum Museum offers collections of paintings and sculptures, the Dresden City Museum stores local history materials, and the Transport Museum in Johanneum tells about the evolution of rolling stock. Some expositions are located on the outskirts of the city, which makes it possible to combine the inspection of collections with walks through the picturesque surroundings.
The museum life of Dresden is actively developing: temporary exhibitions and imported projects are regularly opened in the halls, expositions on porcelain, history and ethnography are changed, educational programs and popular science events are held. Museums cooperate with major European collections, so unique thematic projects and joint exhibitions often appear in the poster; follow the updates on official resources so as not to miss interesting events and temporary exhibitions.

Book your tickets in advance and allow local experts to show you the city from a new angle – such a trip will leave a vivid impression and give an excuse to return again.
