The Procession of Princes mural in Dresden: photos, reviews

About

The famous frieze, which is a must-visit, is named "The Procession of Princes." It is located, or more precisely, laid out on one of the facades of the Long Gallery, which in turn belongs to the Stables Courtyard. Several centuries ago, the described masterpiece was a mosaic frieze, created using the sgraffito technique. Over time, as well as due to the impact of external factors, the fresco began to lose its original appearance, so at the beginning of the 20th century, it was transferred to tile.

This frieze was spared by military actions. It serves as a unique historical "mirror" of the Saxon princely lineage. It is precisely on its basis that one can construct a fairly accurate description of not only the costumes of that time but also the weapons.

Historisch und riesig. Glaubt man im ersten Moment gar nicht, wenn man davor steht. Innenstadt war natürlich voll am Wochenende und zwischen Weihnachten und Neujahr. Vielleicht besser außerhalb der Ferien bestaunen.

Sehenswert, sollte man gesehen haben. Aber liegt vieles was man sehen sollte in der gleichen Ecke. Sonntags sind die öffentlichen Parkplätze kostenlos aber nicht umsonst. 🙃

Prachtig! Mooi beeld van de geschiedenis van het Koningshuis van Saxen
