Dresden Panometer
Dresden Panometer, 360-degree panoramic museum in Reick district, Germany.
Description
The Dresden Panometer occupies a converted former gas holder building and displays immersive 360-degree images reaching up to 27 meters in height with integrated light and sound effects. The cylindrical hall allows visitors to view the large-scale installations from multiple viewing platforms positioned at different levels.
History
The building was originally constructed as a gas holder in 1878 and was repurposed by artist Yadegar Asisi in the early 2000s into an exhibition space. This transformation saved the distinctive structure from decline and created a new cultural venue in the city.
Culture
The rotating panoramas display scenes from Dresden's baroque era, document events from 1945, and present natural environments like the Amazon rainforest. Visitors step into these visual worlds and experience how light and sound effects bring the stories to life.
Practical
The museum is located in the Reick district and is easily accessible by public transportation, with stairs and elevators providing access to the various levels. Visitors should plan to spend several hours exploring the multiple viewing platforms and installations at their own pace.
Did you know?
Visitors often overlook that the panoramic images shift and reveal new perspectives as you move between the different platforms at varying heights. The interaction between the different viewing levels creates a completely different visual experience compared to observing from a single vantage point.
