Dresden Angel

This angel sits atop the University of Visual Arts in Dresden, Germany. Once the capital of the Kingdom of Saxony, Dresden was a cultural powerhouse until it was nearly destroyed by Allied bombing in February of 1945, just months before the end of the war. It has been beautifully restored and merits a visit of several days to experience all its treasures.
