THE ZWINGER XPERIENCE: THE WEDDING OF THE CENTURY, 1719
It is the year 1709 – the height of the High Baroque era. In the midst of boisterous parties, elaborate costumes and extravagant works of art, Augustus the Strong commissions a magnificent building. Matthaeus Poeppelmann and Balthasar Permoser are instructed to create a building that will forever shape the image of Dresden. Now, over 300 years later, the Zwinger is reminiscent of this magnificent and glamorous period. It continues to represent the wealth and sovereign power of the time. But hardly anyone knows what the Elector of Saxony and King of Poland originally had in mind for the building located between the city’s inner and outer fortifications.
