    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[River cruises were particularly popular along the Elbe River, occurring between Dresden and the picturesque “Saxon Switzerland” to the south. One can still get a sense of the relaxed elegance of such cruises since the Stadt Wehlen, the oldest dating from 1879, and eight more are still active. They are owned and operated by the Sächsische Dampfschiffahrts Company, which claims to be the largest and oldest paddle steamer fleet in the world. <br />
