Dresden celebrates Pentecost: Where there are fresh rolls!

Cotta, Deutschland - Pentecost is just around the corner and while many of us look forward to a few relaxing days, many wonder: where are there fresh rolls and snacks? Good news for all Dresdeners! Numerous bakeries in the urban area are open over the long weekend. More precisely, more than 80 bakeries are in use on Pentecost Sunday, while almost 60 bakeries are ready to sell their delicious bakers on Whit Monday. The list of open bakeries is arranged by postcodes and districts, even if it does not claim to be complete. [Sächsische.de] (https://www.saechsische.de/sachsen/Dresden-baecker-oeffungszeiten-zu-pfingsten-hier-gobt-es-broetchen-ravsi3qvlvbdxbpzlv3ixour54.html) informs that the opening hours are provided directly from the bakeries.

But what about the supermarkets? Here the location is a bit trickier. As reports t-online.de, most supermarkets in Dresden remain closed at Pentecost, and this applies to Sunday and Monday. Exceptions confirm the rule: bakeries with a café are often open, and markets in train stations are also allowed to open their doors. Food machines in many courtyards in the city are also available around the clock - if the little hunger strikes!

opening times in detail

For everyone who wants to plan their purchases, here is a brief overview of what is going on in Dresden:

• bakeries: over 80 open on Pentecost Sunday, almost 60 on Whit Monday.
• supermarkets: on the whole closed, bakeries with café and station markets excluded.
• food machines: available around the clock.

The exact opening times of bakeries are variable, as I said, but are based on the information of the respective companies. This means that a quick look at the website or a call could be worthwhile to ensure that the desired bakery has actually opened.

In addition, shops in train stations and at airports often have regular opening times. This is a welcome message for all travelers who are traveling over Pentecost. Also fast food restaurants like McDonald’s or Burger King are usually open, so that you can eat something quickly before or after the trip.

The Pentecost weekend falls on June 8th and 9th this year, and even if many shops are closed, the bakeries in most federal states are open on Sunday or Monday - often also with shortened opening hours, such as Kaufda.de it summarizes it. So nothing stands in the way of enjoying fresh rolls or a tasty snack on these holidays! Be it for an extensive breakfast table or just for the small refreshment in between - there are enough options in Dresden.
