The Erich-Kästner-Museum is a small literary museum in Dresden devoted to the author of Emil and the Detectives and other twentieth-century works. Its scale is intimate, fitting a writer whose biography is closely tied to the city.
This is a specialist stop rather than a blockbuster museum, but it is worthwhile for readers and anyone interested in Dresden's cultural life beyond the reconstructed old town. Expect a focused visit, not a long one.
