  The Zwinger palace, a baroque palace in Dresden, was originally built in the 18th century at the behest of Augustus the Strong, and was extensively restored after World War II. This book examines the original architecture, the work of restoration, which aimed to replicate the original style, and the paintings, porcelain and scientific instruments that the palace houses.
