Schloss Albrechtsberg, at Bautzner Straße 130 in Dresden-Loschwitz, is rented for conferences, receptions, company parties, award ceremonies and weddings. The Kronensaal (crown hall) can be set up as a meeting room for up to 170 participants, and the adjoining salons serve smaller seminars. The castle stands above the Elbe in a landscaped park.
Seminars and company events
The castle describes itself as a business address as well as a private one. For a conference, the Kronensaal becomes a meeting room for up to 170 people. The salons next to it suit smaller seminars, discussion groups and workshops. The rooms have plenty of daylight, and the Kronensaal can be darkened when a presentation needs it.
Sound, lighting and video technology is available through the castle or its technology partners. For breaks, the Gartensaal (garden hall) is recommended for serving guests, and the sun terraces and the park are available for a walk between sessions. The experienced event team supports planning and running the day, and a contact form and phone line handle quotes.
The site lists the benefits as a historic setting, a professional team, technology bookable through the castle or partners, cooperation with established catering partners, and good access to train stations, the airport and the motorway. Parking is available.
Besides conferences, the castle lists company parties, receptions and award ceremonies, and concerts, readings and lectures as event types.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings are a core use. The site describes options for a civil ceremony, an individual ceremony and the wedding celebration itself. The two floors can be combined for exclusive use of the whole castle, or one floor can be chosen depending on the number of guests and the character of the event. Each floor has a separate access to its own sun terrace. Family celebrations and summer parties also appear among the event types.
Rooms and capacities
The castle has two event floors. The Untere Etage (lower floor) has a Mediterranean feel and suits celebrations of all kinds. The Obere Etage (upper floor) holds the Kronensaal and the stately salons. The Kronensaal reaches 170 participants in a conference layout, and the Gartensaal serves for catering. Exact capacities for other layouts, such as banquet seating, are not on the pages we reviewed, so ask the team.
Catering
Catering is delivered by the castle's partner caterers. Organizers can choose the beverages, snacks and buffets for coffee and lunch breaks to suit the program.
History and setting
The castle stands high above the Elbe in a landscaped park, in the district of Loschwitz, with a view over the city sometimes called Elbflorenz. The event rooms are restored, and the site also has pages on a Roman bath and on the family history of the castle. The city of Dresden publishes an appeal for donations for the castle.
