With the opening of the Military Historical Museum, Dresden received one of the largest and most modern historical museums in Germany. The new building ascends to be one of the three most important national historical museums in Germany – after the Bonn House of History and the German Historical Museum in Berlin. Thematic cross-sections on culture and social history of the military history and violence are planned for the new building. A chronological tour through the epochs of military history from the late middle ages to the present runs through the renovated historical building.
