Film Nights on the Elbe Are Back
The award-winning residential development Marina Garden Dresden is proud to be a partner of the Film Nights on the Elbe, one of Dresden’s most popular summer cultural events. From June 25 to August 30, the banks of the Elbe will once again be transformed into a unique open-air venue for films, concerts, and unforgettable summer evenings. This partnership is a natural fit for us. As a modern residential development on the banks of the Elbe, Marina Garden Dresden stands for outstanding quality of life, contemporary architecture, and an exceptional living environment. These are the same values that make the Film Nights on the Elbe such a special event. Together, we are creating a summer filled with culture, community, and memorable experiences right by the river. We are proud to be part of an event that has been an integral part of Dresden’s summer for many years. We wish all visitors an unforgettable time and many wonderful summer evenings.

FröbelHöfe Celebrate Topping-Out Ceremony
On 25 June, we celebrated the topping-out ceremony at FröbelHöfe, marking an important milestone in the development of our project. This long-standing tradition provides an opportunity to pause and recognize the dedication of everyone contributing to the project’s success – from the initial concepts and planning stages through project preparation to the daily work on the construction site. The ceremony brought together project managers, architects, construction companies, craftsmen, business partners, and future residents. Guests had the opportunity to tour the emerging buildings, take a first look at their future homes, and experience FröbelHöfe from a perspective that, just a few months ago, existed only on architectural plans. As construction continues to progress according to schedule, so does the successful marketing of the project. More than 50% of the apartments from the first sales phase have already been sold, while the second sales phase has now been launched, offering additional apartments to future homeowners.

Traditional CTR Summer Rooftop Party in Prague
Summer on the Rooftop Is Back! On Thursday, we once again gathered for our traditional summer rooftop party at our headquarters in Viktoria Center, Prague, bringing together colleagues from across the CTR Group. Great barbecue, refreshing drinks, and a unique view of Prague Castle — an iconic part of our everyday working environment — were all part of the afternoon. It was a wonderful opportunity for informal conversations, sharing news, and spending quality time with colleagues we do not get to meet that often during our daily work. Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped create such a great atmosphere! A special thank you also goes to our colleagues from CTR Atmospherica Aviation, CTR Albertov and CTR Viktoria Center for being part of this traditional summer event.

The WatsoNova team got together for dinner
🍷 WatsoNova in Košice is making progress, and while working on the project, we found time to spend an evening together. In the pleasant surroundings of Villa Sandy, we enjoyed good food and casual conversations, and got together with colleagues in a relaxed atmosphere away from the daily grind. It was a pleasant evening full of good cheer and interesting conversations that we all enjoyed.

Dresden is now a prime location
According to a recent study by the renowned law firm Lübke Kelber, Dresden now ranks among the top 14 German cities in terms of residential property. The positive development of the housing market in Dresden, the rising quality of life, the long-term decline in the vacancy rate, the large proportion of foreign investors and the growing economic strength are cited as the reasons for the new ranking. The current vacancy rate stands at 1.1%. Rents have risen by 7% annually over the last two years. For us, this is more than just a statistic With our Dresden projects Marina Garden and FröbelHöfe, we are part of this development. The Dresden market offers great potential. We would be happy to show you the specific opportunities this presents today. https://froebelhoefe.de/ | https://marina-garden.de/

Construction is taking place on an area of 30,000 square meters. In addition to residential units, the site will feature a supermarket, restaurant, café, fitness center and other services, an underground garage, a children’s playground, and relaxation zones – creating a fully-fledged new city quarter.

Corporate Traditional Roadtrip, this time to Bavaria at Lake Chiemsee, turned out great.
25. 9. 2025 Last weekend we enjoyed another teambuilding of the CTR Real Estate group from Czechia, Slovakia, and Germany. The weather was fantastic throughout – just like the team spirit. One day we enjoyed the beauty of the mountains – most of us even managed the more demanding hike up Kampenwand with breathtaking views. The next day we took a boat trip on Lake Chiemsee, visited both islands and Herrenchiemsee Palace. The evenings were dedicated to sharing the successes and new challenges of the CTR group and to spending pleasant moments together over good food and drinks.
