It is a land of inventors. High-quality wellness resorts, top-class art and culture, world-famous handicrafts, and some of the best luxury products in the world await to welcome you. The musical landscape of Saxony is rather unique in Germany. Castles, palaces and gardens are part of the great Saxon heritage.

One of the most influential painters of the Renaissance is coming to Dresden. 🎨

From 19 September 2026 to 10 January 2027, the Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister at the Dresden Zwinger will host "Correggio. Movingly Human." The exhibition brings together exceptional international loans and is the first exhibition ever dedicated to Correggio's complete oeuvre outside Italy.

Known for his masterful use of light and his deeply human portrayal of emotion, Correggio's works influenced generations of artists, yet remain a hidden gem to many art lovers today.

Planning a cultural weekend in Saxony? This extraordinary exhibition is the perfect reason to visit Dresden ✨

Tell us your favourite winery, wine terrace or vineyard view in the comments.
