Dresden Neustadt: From History To Hipster by Walkative!
Tour description
Cross the Elbe and explore Neustadt, a district with a rich and dynamic past. From its origins as a fishing village to a Baroque city, through the Industrial Revolution and wartime destruction, to the cultural upheaval of the 1990s, Neustadt captures the true spirit of Dresden!
We will start our tour at the Golden Rider statue and stroll through the Baroque splendour of Königstraße and Albertplatz. We will see other historical sites of the inner Neustadt like the Kügelgenhaus and the Dreikönigskirche. Then we will experience the vibrant, counter-culture atmosphere of the outer Neustadt filled with graffiti, street art, and renowned nightlife. We will stop at the Assi-Eck intersection - the nightlife hub, and popular Martin Luther Square and see the Kunsthofpassage, a complex of courtyards transformed by local artists into art zones. We will then pass by the Old Jewish Cemetery and end at the world's most beautiful milk shop, adorned with neo-Renaissance tiles.
