Brühl's Garden, Public park in Altstadt, Dresden, Germany
Brühl's Garden sits along the eastern edge of a terrace with wide pathways, benches, and a dolphin fountain overlooking the river. The space connects the riverside promenade to the surrounding artistic quarter, creating an open transition to the historical district.
The garden takes its name from Heinrich von Brühl, a powerful statesman who shaped Saxony's cultural and political affairs in the 1700s. Its design reflects the Baroque tradition of princely gardens that defined the era.
The garden is named after Heinrich von Brühl and reflects the artistic tradition of Dresden's old town. Visitors can sense the proximity to the Fine Arts Academy and enjoy views of the reconstructed Frauenkirche from here.
The garden is accessible from multiple entry points in the old town and pathways are well-paved throughout. Visitors will find plenty of seating areas and can explore the space comfortably in any season.
A restored building from 1739 still stands in the Kanonenhof area and now houses an Italian restaurant. This structure remains one of the last survivors of the original Baroque-era buildings.
