Jon Searles' photos with the keyword: Altmarkt

As you can see, for this shot I tried to compose the Frauenkirche with one of the statues in the Altmarkt, which I don't think I had tried before.

Although I've photographed it a number of times before, it seemed natural on a visit to Dresden that I should photograph the Frauenkirche again.

The primary border between Altmarkt and Neustadt is the River Elbe, which actually flows from the Krkonose mountains in the Czech Republic. In the Czech Republic, it's known as the Labe. In any case, it gives you a clear enough view to get nice photos of the Altmarkt from the Neustadt side, and vice versa.

The most challenging part of rebuilding Dresden in the years following World War II was the Altmarkt, although this reconstruction is one of the most complete, as it was the most missed. This night shot of the clock tower was the only truly good shot I got of it on this visit, however.
