The Altmarkt is the center of the city and its oldest square; the first documented mention dates back to the year 1370.
It was the scene of courtly festivals and bourgeois revolutions, it had famous residents such as Heinrich von Kleist or Carl Maria von Weber.
And the Striezelmarkt has been taking place here since 1434.
Today, numerous shops, cafés, and restaurants can be found around the square, as well as the Altmarkt-Galerie, Dresden's largest shopping center.
