The Dresden Armory (Rüstkammer) has a world-famous collection of ceremonial weapons, armor and historical textiles. It is also called the "Dresden Historical Museum" (Historisches Museum Dresden), which is part of the State Art Collections (Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden). For a long time, it was located in Zwinger. In February 2013, the meeting returned to the Dresden Castle Residence.

Until the 30s of the XIX century, this collection was not an art collection and served for the representative purposes of the elector. Only in the 1920s, when the Saxon monarchy was liquidated, did the Armory become an art-historical museum.

The Dresden Armory will be interesting to lovers of antiquity and history. You will enjoy visiting this museum, where you can see a unique collection.

Take tram 4, 8, 9 to the Theaterplatz stop.

How do I save on hotels?

Everything is very simple - look not only at the booking. I prefer the search engine RoomGuru. He is looking for discounts at the same time on Booking and on 70 other booking sites.

Lake Como - a source of inspiration

On the porch of the Limone restaurant, with a plate of fish delicacies and a glass of white, we were struck by the thought: no matter how wonderful the vibrant Milan is, you want to relax your soul from the endless dynamics of the city and dissolve in the charm of enchanting landscapes with alpine mountains, cypress trees and fruit trees against the backdrop of a blue lake .

Russian guide to Sicily: review of the Light from Palermo

I do not want to lie and write that we are personally acquainted with Sveta, a guide to Sicily from Palermo. That she conducted a city tour for me, so good that she decided to write a review about her on BlogoItaliano. Not. It was not so. Not at all like that. Neither this nor last summer I went to Sicily. But this acquaintance left such a strong impression that I wanted to devote a separate article to it.
