Eating out
One of the things holiday makers always appreciate is the "Saxon hospitality". During the summer months, cafés and bars spill out onto the streets, giving the city a Mediterranean atmosphere. Gourmets will find a selection of fine restaurants in Pirna, offering national and international cuisines. Sit back and enjoy the great atmosphere, and let gourmet chefs treat you to some delicious, mouthwatering dishes.
Some restaurants in Pirna have been awarded with the "specially recommended on the Saxon Wine Route" seal of quality for their selection of local wines on offer ("Besonders empfohlen an der Sächsischen Weinstraße"). A candlelight dinner at a romantic vault restaurant accompanied by live music – the perfect finish to a perfect day in Pirna.
If you're looking for something special to do, pay a visit to the "Zum Giesser" brewery in Pirna-Copitz, where beer is still brewed the traditional way. After a tour of the brewery, you can sample the own-brand beer distillates and try the delicious rustic food.
Pirna Arts Theatre
Located in the romantic old town of Pirna, the Q24 arts theatre has been making a name for itself since 1999. With a capacity of 250 people, the arts theatre with a clubby atmosphere regularly presents rock and pop concerts. Other regular events at Q24 include comedy shows, events for children and young adults as well as slide show presentations on travel-related topics from around the world.
Piroyal – Club/Bar/Lounge
Opened in 2008, PIROYAL is a young event venue located right in Pirna's city centre. Spread over two floors, this classy location is the perfect setting for a variety of events. Regular party nights as well as spectacular special events dominate the events calendar.
A straight-lined design, clear structures and the clever blend of dance floor and lounge give the ground floor a truly astonishing look. The design of the top floor is less sleek, and more glamorous: heavy red velvet curtains and golden décor give the room an elegant, luxurious feel. Both floors are equipped with state-of-the-art sound and light systems. The separate outdoor area is used as a smoking area and for open-air events.
PIROYAL is ideally located near the B172, which connects the Saxon Switzerland National Park with Dresden. Public transport connections are only a few minutes' walk away, and the A17 motorway connection can be reached in two minutes by car. Ample parking facilities can be found right outside the main entrance.
