The Quartier: Where Dresden’s History Meets Premium Modern Living
Historical Charm with a Modern Twist
The exclusive residential ensemble Marina Garden Dresden is located in the historic Leipziger Vorstadt district. Once a bustling industrial hub of the Gründerzeit (Wilhelminian) era—shaped by the historic Ernst Grumbt steam sawmill and the heritage-listed villa in the Italian Neo-Renaissance style—the area is now transforming into a vibrant, forward-looking urban quarter. Together with the modern HafenCity and the revitalization of the Alten Leipziger Bahnhof (Old Leipzig Station), you will experience a contemporary urban development that elegantly translates the historical spirit of this location into the modern age.
Award-Winning Architecture on the Elbe
This sophisticated concept has also won international acclaim: Marina Garden Dresden was honored with the prestigious German Design Award 2026. The international jury praised the perfect harmony of sophisticated architecture, sustainable concepts, and the prime location right on the banks of the Elbe. The organically curved design by BARCODE Architects (Rotterdam) and the clean, modern architectural language of Knerer und Lang blend seamlessly into the urban environment. Divided into four separate structures, the building offers tailored living spaces that meet the highest standards.
