Dropout Records - Dresden - Interior
In August 2002 the worst flood in Saxony's history hit more than two third of the state! Famous buildings in Dresden were inundated with muddy floodwater (for example Opera and Zwinger -> photo). Most of the famous buildings have already been restored but lot of people are still suffering from the aftereffect of the water.
The Russian Orthodox church, largely due to its location more than 2 km. west of the city center, is visited by very few tourists.
The architecture of this fascinating and relatively small church, is very characteristic of Russian architecture of the era. However, the unique Dresden architectural style is evident. The interior is filled with stunning icons and other interesting art works.
I could find no posting as to the times that the church is open to the public, but I will try to find more information for the reader. It is located by the side of the Teplice highway.
The J?gerhof building is one of the few remains of Renaissance architecture in Dresden (but it is only the western wing of the original complex). It was built in 1569.
Today it is home for the local folk art museum. It is always worth a visit, but a must see at Easter or Christmas time, when special exhibits are to see.
It is located in the Neustadt, a few steps east of the Golden Horseman monument.
When old Cliffie was doing the sights of Dresden with Paksoo, he had to trudge from place to place. But Kim Il Sung made stately progress, flanked by motorcycle outriders, in his Zil limousine. Obviously, all Great Leaders are equal but some are more equal than others.
The Zwinger was designed by Pöppelmann and constructed in stages from 1710 to 1728. Sculpture was provided by Balthasar Permoser. The Zwinger was formally inaugurated in 1719, on the occasion of the electoral prince Frederick August’s marriage to the daughter of the Hapsburg emperor, the Archduchess Maria Josepha. At the time, the outer shells of the buildings had already been erected and, with their pavilions and arcaded galleries, formed a striking backdrop to the event. It was not until the completion of their interiors in 1728, however, that they could serve their intended functions as exhibition galleries and library halls.
The Zwinger fue diseñado por Pöppelmann y su construcción se llevó a cabo entre 1710 y 1728. Fue inaugurada en 1719 cuando el principe electo Federico Augusto se casó con la hija del emperador de Hasburgo, la archiduquesa Maria Josefa. Es uno de los palacios mas bonitos que he visto e incluso es muy comparado con el palacio de versalles en Francia.
