Thanks to its remarkable heritage and magical atmosphere, Dresden shines brightly during the holiday season, offering an enchanting backdrop for winter traditions. You will begin with a walking tour of the Old Town, passing by the Zwinger Palace, the opera house, the cathedral (the Church at the Court), and the impressive 101-meter-long mural "Procession of Princes," which depicts the history of the ruling Wettin dynasty of Saxony, before reaching the majestic Frauenkirche. Then, let yourself be captivated by the magic of Dresden's Christmas Market, the Striezelmarkt, one of the oldest in Germany. Nestled in Altmarkt Square, in the heart of the city, this historic market perfectly embodies the authenticity of German Christmas traditions. Immerse yourself in its fairy-tale atmosphere, where handmade decorations and festive entertainment create an enchanting ambiance. The market takes its name from the Striezel, a traditional pastry that has now become the famous Stollen, emblematic of the holiday season in Germany. You will also encounter the charming Pflaumentoffel, small prune figurines dressed as chimney sweeps, symbols of good luck and a must-have during this winter celebration. Return to the boat.
