Dresden is the capital of Saxony and one of Germany's most culturally rich cities, home to approximately 570,000 residents. It operates on Central European Time (CET/CEST). Dresden was known as the 'Florence of the Elbe' for its extraordinary Baroque architecture and world-class art collections — before February 13–15, 1945, when Allied bombing raids destroyed approximately 85% of the city centre in one of WWII's most controversial bombings (killing an estimated 22,500–25,000 people, though earlier exaggerated claims of 135,000 were debunked). The city's meticulous post-war reconstruction — particularly the Frauenkirche (rebuilt and reconsecrated in 2005, 60 years after its destruction) — is a global symbol of reconciliation and cultural restoration. The Zwinger Palace, the Semper Opera House, and the Old Masters Gallery (Gemäldegalerie Alte Meister) hold masterworks including Raphael's Sistine Madonna. Dresden is also a major centre for semiconductor manufacturing and microelectronics, sometimes called 'Silicon Saxony.'
