Sächsische Staatskanzlei, Government headquarters in Dresden, Germany
The Saxon State Chancellery is a government agency in Dresden housed in a four-story building with classical architectural features. A gilded crown adorns the roofline, and the structure sits near the Elbe River.
The building was completed in 1904 and originally served as the Royal Ministry of Interior. After German reunification, it became the Saxon State Chancellery in 1995.
The building displays inscriptions from its royal past and maintains architectural elements that represent Saxon governmental authority across different historical periods.
Visits are limited to exterior viewing since this is an active government building. Visitors can see and photograph the structure from the street, with the distinctive crown on the roof being easy to spot from a distance.
Beyond the main office in Dresden, the chancellery maintains additional offices in Berlin and Brussels to represent Saxon interests at federal and European levels. This decentralized setup allows direct representation of Saxony in Europe's key political centers.
