All the way back in December I went to Dresden for a lovely day trip. Dresden was devastated in the war, but the significant buildings of the centre city have since been painstakingly rebuilt. This first part, however, is mostly images of the newly built part of the city.
Am Dezember ging ich für eine schöne Tagesreise zu Dresden. Sie war im Krieg verwüstet, aber die wichtige Zentrumsgebäude wurden wieder minutiös aufgebaut. Doch, diese erste Teile ist am meisten Bilder, von die neuere gebaut Stadtteile.
