Dresden - Fürstenzug
Innere Altstadt | Augustusstraße
The "Procession of Princes" is a large mural of a mounted procession of the rulers of Saxony. It was originally painted between 1871 and 1876 to celebrate the 800th anniversary of the Wettin Dynasty, Saxony's ruling family. With a length of 102 metres, it is known as the largest porcelain artwork in the world. The mural displays the ancestral portraits of the 35 margraves, electors, dukes and kings of the House of Wettin between 1127 and 1904.
Only minimal damage to the tiles resulted from the February 13, 1945 bombing of Dresden.
