The views from the tower's balcony are truly amazing. The entrance fee is included in the ticket for the castle.

The best vantage point in the city with views over the Zwinger, the Semper Oper and the Frauenkirche. It's very modern on the inside, the climb was rather easy and very rewarding

The Hausmannsturm is a tower in the old town of Dresden and the oldest surviving part of the Dresden castle complex. There's not much to see in the tower. The tower has a clock and inside the tower, you can see the mechanisms of the clock, which is actually quite fascinating. The height of the tower is over 100 metres and the views are amazing, especially as you can get a close up look of the sculptures on Dresden Cathedral and a bird's eye view of Theatreplatz.

I entered Hausmannsturm as part of the combined ticket for Dresden Castle and it's well worth the effort for the views.

Took the walk up to the top one crowded day. Walking in a long line, but still very enjoyable. It's amazing to be able to walk around in such a nicely preserved castle. Very nice view of Elbe, the opera and towards Zwinger from the top.
