Ballhaus Watzke, Heritage brewery and inn in Mickten, Dresden, Germany

The Ballhaus Watzke occupies a prominent corner position at Leipziger Straße and Kötzschenbroderstraße, featuring a neo-empire architectural design with decorative ceiling paintings.

Originally established as a peasant shed in 1790, the site transformed into a spirits distillery in 1804 before becoming a brewery under Gottlob Wilhelm Hübner's ownership.

The establishment houses a grand ballroom that accommodates 770 guests, hosting regular dance events and concerts that maintain Dresden's social traditions.

The facility maintains dedicated parking spaces for 70 vehicles and 5 buses, operating from 11:00 to 23:00 Sunday through Thursday, with extended hours until midnight on weekends.

Three falcon pairs have established nesting sites in the building's dome windows, creating a natural spectacle for visitors while enjoying their meals and beverages.
