Heinrich-Schütz-Haus, Dresden, Renaissance residence in Dresden, Germany.

The Heinrich-Schütz-Haus stands at Frauenstraße 14, consisting of three buildings with reconstructed historical facades near the Frauenkirche in Dresden.

The original building from 1530 served as home to composer Heinrich Schütz from 1629 to 1657 before its destruction during the 1945 Dresden bombings.

A sandstone frieze featuring 32 dancing children, created by Christoph Walther I in 1535, decorates the exterior of this reconstructed structure.

The current senior residence, rebuilt between 2007 and 2008, contains apartments ranging from 48 to 108 square meters with barrier-free accessibility.

The childhood dance relief frieze presents an opposing theme to the Dresden Dance of Death frieze, expressing Renaissance celebration of life.
