BAROQUE BEAUTY: A VIGNETTE OF DRESDEN'S OLD TOWN

As night falls in the old town of Dresden, visitors are transported back to the 18th century, the cultural heyday of the city. During the reigns of Augustus the Strong (August der Starke) and his son Augustus III, many of Dresden's iconic buildings were sponsored, including the Katholische Hofkirche and Dresden Castle. Despite being heavily bombed during World War II, the old town has been meticulously rebuilt, preserving its stunning Baroque architecture. Today, Dresden's old town in Saxony, Germany, is a living monument to the city's rich cultural heritage – Dresden, Saxony, Germany.
