Former Lichtdruck-Werkstatt-Museum, Cultural heritage museum in Dresden, Germany

The former Lichtdruck-Werkstatt-Museum showcases the art of light printing through displays of historical printing machines and technical equipment dating from 1900.

The printing workshop operated commercially until 1993, when businessman Karl Nolle acquired eight antique machines for one Deutsche Mark and relocated four to Dresden.

The museum exhibits demonstrate the complete light printing process, including gelatin-treated glass plates and specialized paper used for high-quality reproductions.

Located at Bärensteiner Strasse in the Gruna district of Dresden, the museum is currently closed for extensive renovations with no set reopening date.

UNESCO recognized approximately 200 prints produced by this workshop until 1998, marking it as one of the last operational light printing facilities worldwide.
