Guided Story
Here you are on a square that has been a central part of Dresden's Innere Neustadt since 1722. Look around at the spaciousness of Palaisplatz. Behind you stretches Königstraße, leading all the way to Albertplatz, making this square a significant junction. To the southwest, you can spot the Museum of Ethnology and the historically important Japanese Palace, both just a short walk away. The square itself quietly bears witness to history without loudly proclaiming it. It's a place worth exploring while you take in the surrounding architecture and history.
