Travelling in Dresden with a Car Hire

Dresden was heavily damaged by allied bombing during the Second World War, but the city’s continuing resurrection is as fascinating as it is inspiring. Many of the city’s oldest buildings were destroyed, but a great many survived and are presently being restored, creating an interesting contrast between the classical and the modern.

The Frauenkirche (Church of our Lady), was largely destroyed in the bombings, and for forty years the ruins were left as a reminder, but in 2005 work was finished on a complete reconstruction of the cathedral, based on the original designs of 18th century architect George Bahr, and incorporating much of the original structure’s material.
