The Zwinger was built as a pleasure palace for the Sachsen Royal Family and is still a pretty spectacular set of buildings and grounds today.
We had dinner in PlanWirtschaft on the recommendation of a friend who had been there before.

Day trip to Dresden
We went on the train today to Dresden and visited the Kreuzkirche, the Frauenkircke, the Hofkirche, the Zwinger and the Neustadt (new town) area.
The Frauenkirche is particularly interesting as its ruins were left as a WWII memorial by the GDR so restoration did not start until after the 1990 reunification. Frauenkirche reopened in 2005.
