Zschonergrund, Protected landscape area in western Dresden, Germany

The Zschonergrund valley extends through wooded areas and meadows, featuring a natural stream that flows between gentle hills and diverse vegetation.

During the Middle Ages, the area served agricultural purposes, particularly for hay cultivation and viticulture, later becoming a hunting ground for the Saxon Crown Prince.

The Zschoner Mill, dating from the 15th century, operates as a museum, restaurant, and puppet theater, preserving local traditions and architectural heritage.

Visitors can access the area via tram line 7 to Pennrich station, followed by a walk along Oskar Maune Street and Altnossener Street.

The valley contains remnants of a silver mine from 1763, which ceased operations due to insufficient ore deposits, leaving behind an exploration tunnel.
