Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, Art museum network in Dresden, Germany
The Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden encompasses fifteen museums across multiple buildings in the city center, displaying paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts.
The collection originated in 1560 when Duke Augustus I of Saxony established an art chamber in the Royal Palace of Dresden for scientific instruments.
The museum network features systematic exhibitions of European paintings, porcelain collections, and prints that reflect Saxon royal collecting traditions.
Visitors can access the museums daily from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with some locations closed on Tuesdays, while barrier-free entry exists via Sophienstrasse.
The Green Vault section houses the largest collection of royal treasures in Europe, including a 41-carat green diamond from Dresden.
