Schulmuseum Dresden, Education museum in Dresden, Germany.

The Schulmuseum Dresden is an education museum in Dresden that displays teaching materials, pedagogical artifacts, and reconstructed classrooms from different phases of German school history. The collection documents through authentic objects and room recreations how teaching and learning functioned across generations.

The building dates to 1785 when it first served as a school, undergoing multiple transformations throughout the 20th century before reopening as a museum in 2006. This continuity spans more than two centuries at the same location.

The exhibition displays four reconstructed classrooms from different 20th century periods, each reflecting distinct teaching cultures and learning approaches. Visitors can observe how school furniture, blackboards, and teaching methods evolved across these decades.

The museum occupies the front building erected in 1886 on the school grounds between Seminarstraße and Wachsbleichstraße in Friedrichstadt. The neighbouring rear building has housed the 48. Grundschule since 1785 and is Dresden's oldest school building still in use. The Weißeritz flooded the cellar and ground floor during the 2002 Elbe flood, which delayed the opening until 24 March 2006.

Before 1945 Dresden had three school museums, more than any other German city. They opened in 1904, 1905 and 1910, and all were lost in the February 1945 air raids. The present museum, founded by an association in 1997, opened on 24 March 2006.
