The city is built on the magnificent valley of the Elbe River, it is the capital of Saxony and on our tour of the city you will see why it is considered one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Its description as the "Florence of the North" is no exaggeration, as the city is a huge open-air museum where jewel-like buildings, typical examples of Baroque architecture and art spaces succeed one another. The city was completely destroyed by the bombing of Allied aircraft during World War II, but it has left the ghosts of the past behind and has been reborn, having regained its former glory.
