The Augustiner an der Frauenkirche takes company parties, family celebrations, wedding receptions and group dinners, with the Augustiner Keller seating up to 150 guests. The restaurant stands on the square around the Frauenkirche in Dresden's old town, with a terrace that faces the church.
Seminars and company events
For company events, the Augustiner Keller is the main room. It seats up to 150 at set tables and can be styled either festive or rustic. A traditional cask tapping, announced with a bell, can open the evening after a welcome speech, which gives a team dinner or an end-of-year party a clear start. Groups too large for a standard table can ask for a separate room through the group booking form. The venue does not list conference technology, so the format suits dinners and parties rather than working sessions.
Weddings and receptions
The Keller is also offered for wedding receptions and family celebrations. The in-house team works with partner suppliers for music, flower arrangements and other services, so a couple can plan the dinner, the drinks and the decoration with one contact. In the summer months, guests can gather on the terrace in front of the Frauenkirche before moving indoors for dinner.
Rooms and capacities
Four areas can be booked. The Augustiner Keller seats up to 150 and combines a modern fit-out with Bavarian decoration. The Gaststube is a traditionally furnished dining room on two floors. The Kellergewölbe, a vaulted cellar lined with beer barrels, has long benches and its own bar, and suits a lively evening. The beer garden and sun terrace open in the summer months, with a view of the Frauenkirche. Only the Keller has a published capacity; the team gives numbers for the other rooms on request.
Catering
The kitchen serves Bavarian and Saxon specialties, and event menus are set with the team in advance, with personal advice on dishes. The beer is Augustiner from Munich, brewed by the oldest private brewery in that city and malted on its historic malting floor, and it is served freshly tapped. The restaurant is open daily from 11 a.m. to midnight, with the kitchen serving until 10:30 p.m. and drinks until 11:30 p.m., which leaves room for a late evening after a conference held elsewhere in the city.
History and setting
The Frauenkirche, destroyed in 1945 and rebuilt after German reunification, is the landmark of the Neumarkt. The restaurant sits on this square, among the reconstructed townhouses of the historic center, so groups staying in old town hotels can walk to dinner.
Getting there
The address is An der Frauenkirche 13, 01067 Dresden. The Neumarkt is a short walk from the Altmarkt and the Elbe riverbank. Dresden Hauptbahnhof is the main station for long-distance trains, and Dresden Airport is the closest airport.
