What you'll see
A mural about 100 metres long on the outside wall of the royal stables, showing Saxony's rulers riding in procession over eight centuries, made of thousands of Meissen porcelain tiles.
A brief history
First painted in the 1870s, it was moved onto porcelain tiles around 1907 to protect it from the weather, and it came through the bombing of 1945 almost unharmed.
