The development of the pristine beauty of the narrow and winding rocky valley goes back to an initiative of the Rabenau miller C.F.Ehrlich in 1834. Today the hiking and cycling path is part of an "energy adventure trail", you can see a small power plant and an associated water staircase.
The Weißeritztalbahn that runs here was rebuilt after the flood in 2002 in 2008 , but initially only to Dippoldiswalde.

The view from the Kurländer Palais towards the Frauenkirche with the stately corner house was well known to the Salzgasse in the foreground. The valuable facades that remained after the bomb attack in 1945, like the entire Neumarktviertel, were blown up by 1956.

After 2000, the entire street was rebuilt as a "copy" or adapted new building, and the Palais Riesch as a modern adaptation on the south side is nearing completion.

The house on Rampische Strasse / corner of An der Frauenkirche was built in 1716/17 according to plans by
George Haase for the Büttner Valentin Kolbe built with rich decoration. Burned out in the Seven Years' War, it was then rebuilt in a simplified manner and in the 19th century. inappropriately increased and decorated with neo-renaissance decor. In 1945 the house was destroyed and later demolished along with the entire quarters.

What is striking is the magnificent corner bay window, at the top of which there is a striking woman's head. The salvaged original had been at the entrance to Rähnitzgasse since the 1980s and was fitted into the replica of the house in 2006.

The house with a mansard roof and dormer windows, which was destroyed in the war and demolished in 1956, was built between 1715 and 1720 by George Haase.

The foundation deed was presented on January 29, 2010 by the Dresden State Directorate. The house itself was completed by the end of September 2010 and was ceremoniously handed over on October 9, 2010.

After its destruction in 1945 the City Hall was rebuilt in a simpler style without the original ridge turrets, including without roof turrets. The ballroom wing was built between 1962 and 1965 by Manfred Arlt and others.

From the 5-story building rises the powerful 100 m high Rathausturm (town hall tower), where the gilded Rathausmann (town hall man) stands.

The tower was not allowed to the 100 m high tower "Hausmannstum" of the castle above, therefore, citizens have the figure, depending on the target, added or omitted. Earlier data call with figure 103 m, the latest but only 99.85 m.
In 68 m height is a viewing platform with a balustrade with 16 sandstone figures adorned.

From 1997 to 1999 the top of the city hall tower was reorganized and after many years of closure for the public the prospect platform was made again accessible, from the beginning of 2004 but because of reorganization of the lower part is closed again.

In front of the Party Hall on a green area stands the statue Trümmerfrau, down below the restaurant Ratskeller which is very suitable for tourist groups. However it is currently closed.

Next to it the statue of Bacchus, which is waiting (currently rather in vain) for some tender strokes of tourists ...

Opposite the New Town Hall, an additional building is currently being built, initially as the Technical Town Hall, currently known as the City Forum. The two divisions “Urban Development, Construction, Transport and Real Estate” and “Environment and Climate, Law and Order” with their offices as well as the Office for Economic Development will move into the new administration building on Ferdinandplatz. The complex for 1,350 employees is scheduled to be completed in 2025. The design is being built by the offices of TCHOBAN VOSS Architects, Dresden and BARCODE Architects, Rotterdam.

For the city hall man sculpture the then 20-year old ringer and kindist
Ewald Redam stood model.

On the 20th of August 2004 the City hall man sculpture was taken down, to be restored in time for the city anniversary celebrations in 2006.

On 01.07.2006, the sculpture was lifted back to the tower. It was established a few days earlier to visit next to the rubble woman.

For the council hall, which is decorated with Art Nouveau ornaments and coats of arms, the painter Friedrich Alfred Oehme created a painting in 1934/35 that gives a glimpse of the city. shows about the place. The picture was removed after 1950 and only returned to its original location in 2000.

Since then, the Konsum, the social insurance fund and the Sparkasse have been housed., the latter has been the sole user since the renovation in 1994.

2. Prefabricated housing estate built in the 1980s, originally located on Räcknitzer, Zschertnitzer and Kleinpestitzer Flur, is now completely part of the Zschertnitz district after it was re-located after 1990. Ludwig-Renn-Allee , the main axis of the district, leads directly to the observation tower Bismarcksäule. The settlement is very well developed for shopping with several markets.

In the Rähnitzgasse is also Dresden's oldest Pub "Red Rooster" ().

On Saturdays there is a small farmer's market around the fountain for producers. There are a number of restaurants all around the squareBuilding destroyed in 1945 on Rathenauplatz between Amalienstraße and Moritzring. The front building, built around 1895 in the Neo-Renaissance style, was, so to speak, the counterpart to the Imperial Palace at the Pirnaischer Platz.

Destroyed in 1945, it was partially rebuilt in 1948/56 and served as a place of worship and concert venue until 1956. As early as 1954, the community had to look for a new home due to the announced expropriation (it took place in 1962) and found it in the ruins of the former Hofgaertnerei at the Brühlschen Garten.

The church building had a rather curious use from 1961 to 1963: it was the first venue for the cabaret Herkuleskeule.

The whole area is made out of 3 courts: the Large and the Little Court (Großer and Kleiner Schlosshof) and the Stallhof. The castle has some side towers and a main tower, called Hausmannsturm, which was built in 1674-76 and 100 m high, grating a perfect view down to the Inner Old Town.

In 1945 the castle burt out completely and the re-built is ongoing since 1985. Except for the east wing all outer building work is completed.

The goal is to repair the castle in its outside outlines until 2006. Also the in 1701 destroyed so called Giant hall (Riesensaal) in the East wing is to be established again.

The in 1558-58 by Hans Walther II created Renaissance-gate of the old evangelic castle chapel, which used to be located until 2003 next to the Johanneum ist currently being restored and will be inserted again at the earlier location.

The "Green Vault" (Grünes Gewölbe) which was located before the destruction on the ground floor of the West wing returned to its to historical location in the castle , the actual historic Green Vault was handed over in 2006. In 2007/08, the Small Castle Courtyard as the entrance foyer to the collections was roofed with a glass dome by Peter Kulka.

The passage between the two castle courtyards takes you to the English Staircase, which was reconstructed in 2005/10, and to the Tuerckische-Cammer, which opened in 2010.

In February 2013, the Riesensaal, which was demolished in 1733, was reopened and in which the treasures of the Armoury Chamber can be seen in the future.

The addition of additional museum facilities is planned.

Under August I the Strong, this hall was an extremely magnificent space for court festivities and masked balls. The existence of the Giant's Hall ended in 1733 with the death of August the Strong. His son, August II, abandoned it as a banquet hall in favor of dividing it into smaller rooms including a chapel for the queen.

As part of the reconstruction, the building was restored in the old dimensions but with a modern design based on designs by Peter Kulka. The monumental size of the hall offers the Armory Chamber the opportunity to representatively display a selection of its most important armor and weapons from the late 15th to 17th centuries.

1. VEB Kombinat Robotron, former industrial combine in the area of the Ministry of Electrical Engineering and Electronics of the GDR. The word “Robotron” is a made-up word made up of the parts robot and electronics.

The headquarters of the combine management of the combine founded in 1969 was initially in Radeberg, and since 1970 in Dresden on the St.Petersburger Str. in the so-called Robotron-Gelaende. The VEB Robotron Projekt Dresden, the VEB Robotron-Meßelektronik "Otto Schön" (Measuring electronics) and the Zentrum für Forschung und Technik (ZFT, Center for Research and Technology).

2. Robotron Database-Software GmbH, the only successor company in Dresden of Robotron (1.) in the Coschütz/Gittersee commercial area.

3. Robotron Bürohaus Bürgerwiese, atrium-shaped office complex built in 1968-74 by an architectural collective led by Axel Magdeburg, among others for Robotron -Combine management. Today it is used by a wide variety of companies, educational institutions and also by the city administration (in-house IT) and will probably be used for a future inner-city development with residential houses and shops give way.

In the spring and summer of 2016, the atrium complex was demolished in favor of future residential development.

After the fall of communism, there were ambitious plans for urban redevelopment. The city planning called for the demolition of all existing buildings on the Robotron site and a whole band of new buildings in the form of cubic blocks. But developments turned out differently than hoped.

In 2009, selected architects designed concepts on how the area between the stadium and the Robotron complex could be redesigned (more realistically).

With the demolition of the atrium complex in 2016, the transformation of the southern part of the Robotron site began. The first new apartment block was built on Zinsdorfstrasse in 2022/23.

Der damalige Stadtgartendirektor Balke setzte eine alte Idee
von Kurfürst August des Starken von einer hochwasserfreien Uferpromenade so um, dass der Rosengarten und die benachbarten Gärten zum Gegenstück der bis an das Ufer bebauten Altstädter Elbseite wurden.

In the Rose Garden is the homonymous Italian restaurant with a popular Café garden.

Until 2012, the armory was located in the Sempergalerie of the Zwinger. From 2013, the armory can be visited in the Residenzschloss, including in the local Riesensaal.

The Ottoman part of the collection, the Turkish Chamber, has also been in the castle as a permanent exhibition since 2010.

The large hall was suitable for film demonstrations, also for meetings such as "Jugendweihen". After the change the Rundkino as well as the newly built crystal palace became part of the UFA Cinema Centre and is used since 1997 also as performance place of the puppet theatre.

Since the flood in August 2002 there has been no performance held in the Rundkino and it remains uncertain if it will ever be used again. Other plans are to use it as a Varieté or even to establish the Staatsoperette.

Am 29.03.2007 wurde das Haus als digitales 3D-Großformatkino CINEMAGNUM neu eröffnet. Nach Sanierung der fünf Kinosäle im Untergeschoss firmiert das Haus seit 06.11.2008 als Neues Rundkino Dresden.

Initially it belonged to the "Moscow Partiarchat" until a juristic dispute with the "Foreign church" started and the church had to be handed over against the will of its congregation.

The community belongs to the Moscow Patriarchate. Gebäude und Grundstück gehören seit der Enteignung der Kirchenstiftung im Jahre 1939 der Deutschen Diözese der Russisch-Orthodoxen Kirche im Ausland, was erst nach der Wiedervereinigung Deutschlands wieder rechtskräftig wurde.

Ein daraus resultierender Rechtsstreit wurde 2007 beigelegt, da die Auslandskirche seitdem wieder ein Teil des Moskauer Patriarchats ist.
