Prager Straße

About

Just like the rest of the city centre, Dresden's busiest shopping street was reduced to rubble in the Second World War. Redesigned and rebuilt between 1965-78, Prager Straße is no longer pretty, but with numerous shops, department stores, hotels and cinemas, life has well and truly returned to the street. Now entirely a pedestrian zone, Prager Straße is a living reminder of Socialist urban planning, although the gigantic statue of Lenin which stood at the southern end of the street was removed after German reunification.
