Hofkirche Dresden
 
The former Hofkirche is situated between the palace, the Zwinger and the Semperoper. It is unique in that, in Protestant Saxony, it is a large Catholic church – now the cathedral of the Diocese of Dresden/Meissen. This is because Augustus the Strong converted to Catholicism so that he could become King of Poland.

The interior of the church is brightly lit; of particular note is the memorial altar dedicated to the victims of the air raids, crafted from Meissen porcelain.

As part of a guided tour, you can also visit the royal crypt beneath the church (Augustus the Strong is not buried here; only his heart is). I didn’t do that this time, as I’m already familiar with the crypt from previous visits.

Fürstenzug Dresden
 
Right next to the Hofkirche is the Fürstenzug. It is a porcelain mural consisting of 23 porcelain tiles (made of Meissen porcelain, of course). It depicts all the Saxon rulers of the Wettin dynasty. Incidentally, the Fürstenzug survived the war quite well; the tiles withstood the fire.

The Frauenkirche is undoubtedly one of Germany’s most famous churches. I can still clearly remember the ruins (the GDR also used these ruins as a memorial) and how the stones were sorted. It has now been a feature of the cityscape again for many years.

Genuss Atelier Dresden
 
The Genuss Atelier restaurant has a Michelin star and is located in the basement of a villa by the Waldschlösschen Bridge (yes, the very one that cost Dresden its World Heritage status).

The menu. They were a bit taken aback when I wanted to order the set menu and said they didn’t actually have that many meat-free dishes (well, I count them a bit differently). But I think the real reason was that the kitchen closes at 9.30 pm. A bit odd, but even in the restaurant trade, people don’t want to work until midnight anymore. So we ended up with a 6-course surprise menu.

Thanks for the compliments, but I can't really answer that. They all have their merits.
Maybe I’d go with Sanssouci and Heiderand. Sanssouci because it’s a great venue that’s worth a visit in its own right. Plus, the food is excellent. Heiderand is quite down-to-earth, more of a tavern with good food. But elements and Genuss Atelier are also great, though I’d lean more toward elements. Sanssouci is the farthest from the city center, if that matters. It’s also the most expensive.

There are always those “very special” paintings.

Albertinum Dresden
 
There was a major special exhibition featuring works by Munch and Mendelsohn-Becker. For a bit of contrast, there was even a Cranach or two thrown in. An interesting exhibition – here’s just a small selection.

I’d like to know that too. But I can well imagine what mark I’d have got for it in art lessons at school;)

Taschenbergpalais Dresden
 
As we had planned to visit the Semperoper that evening, we ordered room service. The whole thing was covered by our credit card and was quite reasonable.

They are called “That’s not art, I could do that”.

I always think back to Damian Hirst’s father saying “when you can draw a picture of me, that you can put in a pub and people will think that’s me, that’s art. Not what you do” 🤭
