Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Dresden Cathedral, also known as the Cathedral of the Holy Trinity Dresden or the Katholische Hofkirche, has served as Dresden's historic Catholic Cathedral since 1964, located along the banks of the beautiful River Elbe in the city's center. The church is known as one of Dresden's most iconic landmarks, originally commissioned by Augustus III, Elector of Saxon and designed by architect Gaetano Chiaveri in 1751. Though it was badly damaged during the Second World War in 1945, it was restored to its historic condition twice throughout the 20th century and serves as the cathedral for the Diocese of Dresden-Meissen today. Visitors can explore the church for free throughout the day and see its beautiful restored organ, which is known as the final work of organ builder Gottfried Silbermann. Several crypts house notable Saxon leaders, including King Augustus III of Poland.
