Dresden Elbe Valley

The Dresden Elbe Valley extends for 20 kilometers along the river, featuring grand palaces, gardens, and vineyards against the backdrop of rolling hills.

The valley gained prominence during the Middle Ages as a center of trade, leading to the establishment of settlements and the construction of defensive structures.

The region maintains numerous classical gardens, baroque buildings, and agricultural lands that demonstrate the harmonious integration between human creation and natural landscapes.

Visitors can access the valley through multiple entry points connected by public transportation, with guided tours departing regularly from Dresden central station.

The valley encompasses 1,930 hectares of protected land, including the Übigau Palace in the northeast and the Pillnitz Residence in the southeast.
