The Green Vault in Dresden, Germany, is one of the world's oldest museums, renowned for its opulent collection of treasures. Founded by Augustus the Strong in 1723, it houses an extraordinary array of baroque and rococo masterpieces, including intricate gold artifacts, precious gemstones, and exquisitely crafted jewelry. The museum is divided into two sections: the Historic Green Vault, which showcases the collection in its original baroque setting, and the New Green Vault, which offers a more modern presentation of the artifacts.
