Questions & answers

Q:
I see on their website they offer 90-min. guided tours for just a few Euros more. Is there a specific time for the guided tours?
A:
Sorry, I can't help you with that, I didn't see any tours while I was there.
Q:
Hi, is this something you need to pre book?
A:
No you don’t need to prebook but it is closed on Mondays ... the grounds are open but you can’t access the exhibits.
Q:
Hi i just want to ask if they are open on friday its a german holiday? Thanks
A:
I would think they are open on Good Friday but Google them for phone or website and you can make sure.
Q:
Thanks for the info on public parking. Is it free parking?
A:
There's a big paying parking lot less than 10 min walk from Zwinger, near the Neumarkt. It is paying in coins, so have them with you. Dresden city center is small, easy covered on foot.
Q:
Is entrance to the compound where the fountains are free?
A:
There no charge for seeing the place from outside, unless you want to see the inside or exhibitions.
