HOW TO FIND THE HAUPTSTRASSE
We are happy if we could inspire you to visit the many sights or to make a shopping spree on the Hauptstraße. Have a look at our map if you do not yet know where to find the Hauptstraße in Dresden.
The Hauptstraße is in the immediate center of the city and is very easy to reach by bus or tram (i.e. from the main train station), as well as by car. We recommend connecting your visit of the Hauptstraße with a quick stop at the world famous ensemble of baroque buildings: Semper Opera House, Zwinger and the Hofkirche (Cathedral), that are in close proximity (5 min).
