Best Dresden Day Trips & Things to Do

One of the most famously bombed places in the world is this East German city that was once called the “Florence of the Elbe.” Dresden, which was largely destroyed by a massive bombing raid during WWII, has been rebuilt. Today, one of its most iconic attractions is the Church of Our Lady, which was destroyed during the war but rebuilt and proudly stands as a symbol of what Dresden used to be. Modern Dresden is best known for its world-class museums and riverside beer gardens.
