The District Office Altstadt is housed in a Dresden city administration building completed in 1923. It showcases a unique blend of expressionist architecture with traditional elements, designed by Ludwig Wirth. Surviving the bombings of 1944 and 1945, it stands as a testament to pre-war modernism in Dresden.
