 museum, arts, Renaissance (architecture)
The Albertinum is a famous fine arts museum in Dresden. It is named after Saxon king Albert. The museum was built in 1887 by Carl Adolf Canzler on the site of a former armoury to serve as a public museum and archive. Since 1889 the Albertinum has displayed an excellent sculpture collection, including the celebrated but problematic reconstructions of the Lemnian Athena. It was destroyed in February 1945 during the bombings of Dresden. The Albertinum was rebuilt in 1953.
