What to expect

The Dresden Palace is one of the more magnificent and important palace buildings in Germany. Since 1485, it has been the residence of the successive families of the Saxon Kingdom. The palace was once destroyed by fire during World War II, but was restored and rebuilt according to its original appearance. This palace building combines a variety of architectural art styles. The goose-yellow exterior walls are matched with red roofs and bronze domes, which are quite elegant. The huge palace is now open to the public as the "Palace of Arts and Sciences" and houses the Green Vault (Grünes Gewölbe), the New Green Vault (Neues Grünes Gewölbe), the Gallery (Kupferstich-Kabinett), the Armoury (Rüstkammer) and the Currency Pavilion (Münzkabinett). In addition, the Turkish Chamber of Commerce exhibition, art library and other places are also open to the public, and the exhibits are very rich. The Green Vault Treasure Hall can be described as the treasure of the palace of Dresden. This largest treasure hall in Europe displays thousands of precious collections for the protection of cultural relics. The old treasure hall is located on the first floor. The floor of the exhibition hall is paved with black and white marble, and some walls are decorated with velvet, which is very ornate. There are exhibition halls with different themes such as the Amber Pavilion, the Ivory Room, the Silver Room, the Treasure Room, and the Heraldry Room. Among them, the four sides of the Gem Hall are equipped with gold-plated silver mirrors, which are very shocking. In 2010, the New Treasure Hall was newly established on the second floor of the Royal Palace. The exhibition hall is equipped with anti-dizziness glass and advanced lighting technology to better present every detail of the exhibits. It mainly collects jewelry from the Mughal Dynasty in India, including 4909 diamonds, 160 rubies, 164 emeralds, sapphires, pearls, etc., which are dazzling. One of the cherry pits with 185 faces and the frigate (Fregatte, Sign) carved from ivory are not to be missed. If you are a painting lover, you can go to the gallery and have a look, there are Toulouse-Lautrec, Picasso, Baselitz, Dürer, Van Eyck, Rembrandt, Michelangelo, Fragonard Prints, drawings and other works by well-known artists such as Kaspar David Friedrich. If you feel that visiting from a distance is not enough, you can go to the study room on the third floor of the palace to appreciate the famous paintings up close. The currency hall adjacent to the armory shows the history and culture of Dresden through small coins and medals, and the coinage machines on display are also very interesting. In addition to the various exhibits in the palace, the murals on the outer wall on the north side of Augustus Road are also not to be missed. On this 102-meter-long wall, a tile mosaic is painted with a height of 8 meters. The long fresco "DerFurstenzug" (DerFurstenzug), the figures in the picture are the equestrian statues of the Saxon kings; the tiles used are as many as 27,000, which were built at the end of the 19th century and completed in the 20th century. At the beginning of the century, it was one of the few originals of the entire palace that survived World War II.
