From 1976 there was another line 26, but it only travelled about 3/4 of the way around this ring: Zschertnitz - Parkstraße - 26er-Ring clockwise to Sachsenallee - Johannstadt. After various route changes, the line was finally cancelled in 2000. The name "26er-Ring" is still used colloquially today despite the absence of line 26.

The place is operated by Treberhilfe Dresden e.V.

South of the road Louisenstraße also shopping street with many individual shops, in the northern section is the catering trade at home. Here a selection:

Main attraction is the complex reorganized and "popig" arranged Art yard (Kunsthof) with various little shops as well as the adjacent Yard of the animals (Hof der Tiere). Tavern visitors should come by tram because of missing parking facilities.

In 2004 the southern section between the roads Bautzner Straße and Louisenstraße were transformed on a length of 440 m into a "traffic-calmed down" shopping area.

Operator is the Sächsische Binnenhäfen Oberelbe GmbH (SBO, Saxonian inland ports upper Elbe) [], a 100% daughter of the Free State Saxonia, which operates Riesa and Torgau and [via its 100% daughter Cesko saske pristavy s.r.o.(CSP)] the Czech ports Decín and Lovosice.

At the east end of the harbor basin there is a small open air museum with the barge "Waltraut" (1913), railway carriage (1910), ships and a crane from Eberswalde (1965). (). Not far away from it is the fish restaurant "Alberthafen" (Albert port).

From 2006 to mid-2010, the Albertinum was extensively renovated according to a concept by Berlin-based Büros Staab Architekten. The inner courtyard was completely roofed over and storage rooms and restoration workshops were installed.

The place was back designated in 1871 in Albertplatz, in 1945 in "Platz der Roten Armee" (place of the Red Army) and 1946 in "Platz der Einheit" (place of the unity) and in 1991 again in Albertplatz.

The place is framed in open building method by buildings of different eras: classizist and buildings of art nouveau stand here in relative unity with disks buildings of the WBS 14,40 at the south and north side as well as office buildings of the "Post-Change" time at the west and east edge.

The former administration building of the DVB AG is significant, the in 1929 by Hermann Paulick established oldest "multistoried building" of Dresden and the exemplary reorganized building of the cooperative bank, the in 1902-03 built mansion Villa Eschebach. Until 1945 the Albertheater stood at the north east corner of the place.

In the midst of the circular place, separated by a modern tram- stop plant are the two fountains "quiet water" (eastern side) and "stormy waves" (west side). They were created in 1893/94 by
Clemens Grundig and Robert Dietz. In place of the western fountain stood from 1945 until 1992 the Soviet honour mark (1946 by Otto Rost) stood from 1945 to approximately 1992, which was later moved and can now be seen in the Stauffenbergallee. On the northern side of the square the Artesian well can be found.

In 1865 to 1870 the Albrechtsburg was comprehensively reorganized and restored, and two years later the interiors experienced a new artistic organization. Since the 800-years-celebrations of the Saxonian ruling family Wettin in 1889 the Albrechtsburg is used as museum.

The canteen was opened in 1925 as the first of its kind in Germany. Following extensions in the 1930s, it was expanded to its current size at the end of the 1950s. After the extension, the building complex temporarily housed the rectorate of the TU. The building complex was extensively renovated in 2004-06.

In 1549 Altendresden was united with Dresden. In 1685 a city fire destroyed what was now the district; in addition to a few residential buildings, only the Town Hall and the Jägerhof survived the catastrophe. The reconstruction was carried out according to plans by the senior architect Wolf Caspar von Klengel. In 1732, an electoral document named the district that was being rebuilt Neue Stadt bei Dresden, which gave rise to the name Neustadt. The central street of the district became the magnificently constructed Hauptstrasse, which runs from Neustaedter Market led to the Black Gate.

The cemetery was created in 1721/24 for the catholic members of the Royal court, however it was used since 1738 also for civil citizens. One finds many graves of Polish emigrants, who had to flee in 1831 and found asylum in Dresden.

2.the so-called "Old Town Hall" (also Altstädter Rathaus) located on the north-west side until 1945. It was built in 1741/45 according to plans by Johann Christoph Knöffler by combining several residential buildings. The remodelling carried out by master builder Johann Gottfried Fehre resulted in a uniformly baroque overall impression.

Today, the head building erected as the HOWA department stores' and a section of the residential and commercial row of the new development from 1953/54 stand here and on the site of the neighbouring former Löwenapotheke.

After its complete destruction in 1945 the place and at its west and eastern side was enlarged in 1953-56 in the so called "Stalinbarock" style by Herbert Schneider and Johannes Rascher.

The north side was closed 1960-69 with the culture palace (Kulturpalast), the south side partly cultivates south side at the end of the 1990's.

Dem Abschluss der Südseite ist in den nächsten Jahren entgegen zu sehen: ein siebenstöckiges 4-Sterne-Hotel soll ab April 2008 an die Stelle des alten Kaufhauses Renner gebaut werden. Investor ist das Berliner Unternehmen Prajs & Drimmer.

Also in the "Stalinbarock": the old market eastern side.

On the old market takes place the Dresden Striezelmarkt (Germany's oldest Christmas market), a spring and an autumn market as well as smaller weekly markets. The so far cultivated the place is sourrounded by attractive shops and increasingly by restaurants, bars and pubs also in the external area.

Von April 2022 bis Oktober 2023 wird der Altmarkt erneut umgebaut. Das komplette unterirdische Leitungsnetz zur Ver- und Entsorgung wird erneuert und erweitert. Der Platz erhält neues, barrierefreies Pflaster. Für den Striezelmarkt 2022 wurden die Bauarbeiten unterbrochen.

Due to the construction of an underground car park, no markets took place on the Altmarkt in 2007/08. The partly controversial square design according to plans by gmp architects von Gerkan, Marg and Partners was completed by autumn 2008.

The Altmarkt will be remodelled again from April 2022 to October 2023. The entire underground supply and disposal network will be renewed and expanded. The square will receive new, barrier-free paving. Construction work was interrupted for the Striezelmarkt 2022.

The opening took place on the 18/09/2002, the complex encloses approx. 26,000 m² on 4 levels, included approx. 2,000 m² for catering trade, services and retail trade (over 100 specialist shops).

Extension plans
In 2009/10 the Altmarkt-Galerie will be expanded to Wilsdruffer Strasse. A new main entrance is being built on the corner Postplatz, another in the head building of the former department store on Altmarkt. For this purpose, the former Knoop department store and the so-called Lindehaus were or are being demolished.

With the AMTC a centre for the development and pilot production of future masks for the optical lithography, leading world-wide, was developed. Until end 2004 140 workers, above all high-specialized engineers, will work here. Customer proximity and the possible use of Know How from the wafer production were location-crucial for Dresden.

The factory was established in 2002/2003 after drafts of the HWP planning company in Stuttgart in the airport park, in direct proximity to the production plants by AMD and Infineon, in the north of Dresden.

Today, AMTC is a joint venture between Globalfoundries and Toppan Photomasks.

The Andreaskirchengemeinde was founded in 1904 due to the increased number of members by being separated from the Tritiatiskirchengemeinde. After the destruction of the church, it merged with the Erlöserkirchgemeinde (see Erlöserkirche) to form the Erlöser-Andreas-Kirchgemeinde, which in turn merged with the Tritiatis-Kirchgemeinde in 2000 to form the Johanneskirchgemeinde Dresden-Johannstadt-Striesen.

The church was destroyed in 1945 and demolished in 1952.

In February 1945 the school building was badly damaged and the ruins stood until around 1955.

After reunification, the Annengymnasium was re-established in the building of the nearby 11th POS "Aleksander Zawadzki". Today, the Dresden International School is located in the building complex, which was renovated and extended in 2007. ()

During the GDR era, the building housed the SED party school for the Dresden district, After the fall of communism, it functioned as a “house of culture and education”, in which, among other things, the “theater 50” and the "Dresdner brett'l" were located. In 2001/02 it was completely gutted, renovated in accordance with listed buildings and reopened in 2002 with the theater Wechselbad as a culture and congress center. The building is being marketed by ORPHÈE Event GmbH, which also operates the theater.

2. The current employment agency on Budapester Straße, a simple new building from the post-reunification period.

The hotel is known, among other things, for the striking figure of A.R. Penk on the rooftop on the corner of Ostra-Allee/Maxstraße. It has officially been called the Penck Hotel since 2018.

Original sculptures by Moeller and witnesses to his artistic activities during the GDR era adorn the park-like grounds.

The community center 1912 were established by George Wrba in the reform style.

The building established by William Kreis and Hermann Klette protected the past optics. In 1945 the bridge was blown up by the SS and reconstructed in 1949 in the condition of 1910. From 1949 until 1990 its name was Georgij Dimitroff bridge.

Today there are efforts, to reserve it for pedestrians, after the model of the Prague "Karl bridge", at least occasionally, e.g. during festivals and celebrations.

The Elbe floods in 2013 caused massive damage to the Augustus Bridge. In 2017, a thorough and monument-compliant repair began.
The bridge was officially reopened to pedestrian traffic. Three days later, the tram lines 4, 8, 9 ran again over the Augustus Bridge, which has since been closed to individual motorized traffic.

The A4 connects Dresden in western direction with Chemnitz and/or with south and West Germany as well as starting from the triangle Wilsdruff by the branching A14 with Leipzig and Northwest Germany, in eastern direction with Goerlitz and Poland as well as starting from triangle Dresden north by the A13 beginning with Berlin and Northern Germany. On the western outskirts of the town the A17 branches towards Pirna and/or Prague at the triangle Dresden west.

The in 1936 established motorway bridge of the A4 across the river Elbe was once a modern plain truss girder construction of steel, storing on granite columns. During the reconstruction works which had become necessary it was replaced in 1999 by a broader prestressed concrete bridge resting on the same columns.

The motorway A17 at the south border of Dresden, which will connect the Saxonian state capital with Prague, still under construction. The route was disputed for a long time, the close-to-the-city version was the most preferred.

In the Dresden city area some tunnels and bridge construction works belong to the motorway, the bridge across the Zschonergrund (230 m), which in open building method established tunnel under the Altfrankener Park (345 m), those from two tunnel tubes (tunnel Dölzschen 1070 m, tunnel Coschütz 2332 m) emerge above the Plauen ground (Plauenschen Grund) (220 m) as well as the bridge across the Lockwitz ground (723 m), the longest in the city.

Freigabetermine A17
In the last week of October 2004, the 3 km long section between Dresden-Südvorstadt and Dresden-Prohlis was opened, on 22 December 2004 the 9 km long section between Dresden-Gorbitz and Dresden-Südvorstadt, the section between Dresden-Prohlis and Pirna followed on 22 July 2005. The bridge (350 metres) over the M&uum;glitz Valley is located on this section, already outside the city limits.

The 19.3 km section to the border was opened to traffic on 21 December 2006 after several delays. 10 bridges were built on this last German section, including the Seidewitz (605 m) and Nasenbachtal (208 m) bridges, as well as the Bahretal and Bad Gottleuba junctions.

The Czech section between the border and Usti nad Labem (Auöig) was also opened on 21 December 2006. The remaining Czech section of the Dresden-Prague motorway was opened in 2016.
