About
The Lincke'sche Bad was an excursion restaurant with a garden restaurant, summer theatre and concert hall in Dresden. At the same time, it was one of the first open-air baths.
The Dresden Court Theatre and famous artists such as Joseph Seconda, the composers Christian Gottlob Neefe and Carl Maria von Weber and the architect Bernhard Hempel worked there. Franz Grillparzer described the theatre during a visit in 1826 and E.T.A. Hoffmann used the location as the setting for his play The Golden Pot. In addition, the bath was a popular motif for postcards and engravings, for example by Ludwig Richter.
