Open day at Bahnbetriebswerk Dresden-Altstadt
On 13 September 2026, the historic locomotive depot at Zwickauer Straße opens for Tag des offenen Denkmals®. Regular tours walk you through heating houses and the Lokwerkstatt that once hosted steam engines for Dresden.
What you can do
- Visit between 10:00 and 16:00 local time on the open day
- Join a guided tour and ask how the depot fitted into the city's transport network
- Arrive by ÖPNV; the listing notes parking and accessibility
- Compare with other Technik openings in the national programme
