Dresden Germany

by Kodi01 - last update: Jul 26, 2004

Procession of Dukes - Furstenzug

Furstenzug - yellow wall
This is the Procession of the Dukes, a yellow wall made of ceramic tiles. I captured a picture of the most Famous Man on the Dresden wall, August II.

I found this jewel of a city in my travel brochure.
<font color=purple>It was called "The Florence of Germany".

I have been to Florence, Italy and love it!!
So, I wanted to see why this city had such charm?
I found it to be a much more beautiful city. :o)
You must come and compare for yourself.

<font color=black>This is one thing that attracted me and I wanted to see this city because of this yellow wall. This 102-meter mural is on the outer wall of the Stable Courtyard of the Royal Palace.
It was painted in 1870-1876 by the artist Wilhelm Walter.

It was originally scratched stucco, but was covered with 25,000 Meissen porcelain tiles in 1906 to prevent any damage.

<Font size=3><font color=blue>I arrived a bright and sunny morning October 13th.
I just knew it would not rain on my wonderful vacation in Dresden.

This city is my first steps in Germany, my grandmother came to the USA from Germany and so I wanted to see where she came from.
Was it Dresden? I doubt it, who would ever leave this city?

<font color=green><font size=4>My MANY thanks to Ingo (German_Eagle) for showing me his city.
Welcome to Dresden

The welcoming man!

Sure, I have the famous places, Zwinger, palaces, and pictures of this FABULOUS city.

But, I like entertaining pages, please bear with me as I create my view of Dresden, Germany.

 The toilets in the art gallery "Alte Meister" next to the Semper Opera is free. Just go downstairs where the ticket desks are and you will see the "WC" sigh that you just need to follow.
