In its present form, it is the third building of the Semperoper.
The first building was destroyed in a fire in 1869, the second in the air raids in February 1945.
All buildings have a digital clock (time display with changing numbers).

View of the Briesnitzer Church from the Elbe Trails

Highlight • Viewpoint

Always nice here. Sometimes so green that you can't even see the Elbe.

Radebeul Vineyards

Highlight • Viewpoint

"Along the picturesque Radebeul Elbe slopes you will find numerous cozy wineries that invite you to enjoy and linger in romantic courtyards with fine wines and an impressive view of the Radebeul vineyards." - radebeul.de/Weing%C3%BCter+in+Radebeul.html

The position of the highlight is actually not an MTB highlight, as it is on the asphalted Elbe cycle path. So just take a turn and climb the vineyards. There are really nice trails there.

June 4, 2026,Riesa ➡️ Dresden

Since we got back on our bikes for almost 20km after our lake tour to have dinner with friends, the decision was made early on that with this weather I didn't have the energy or the time (the youngest wanted to arrive from 2 p.m. for a long weekend) for the complete journey home.
So to the train station and …

After scrambling yesterday in the Ore Mountains, today the traditional Elbe valley tour, nice and flat (no idea where Komoot gets the altitude difference) and comfortable. Okay, not particularly original, but always nice...
Actually, today should be a rest day, but after the weather forecast with the hot days on the weekend, I spontaneously postponed it to tomorrow. Then, instead …

Like yesterday: just hot. Route with MTB great to drive. With the racing bike: too many cobblestones. Route for cycling clearly recommended. Many rest areas on the route.
