Stadt Wehlen station, on the
Dresden S-Bahn and the Dresden to
Prague railway, is located on the south bank of the Elb and is connected to the town centre, on the north bank, by the frequent
Stadt Wehlen passenger ferry. Also on the north bank, an infrequent bus service connects the town to
Pirna. Both ferry and bus are operated by the
Regionalverkehr Sächsische Schweiz-Osterzgebirge. Königstein is also a stop for the
Sächsische Dampfschiffahrt ships, including historic
paddle steamers, operating on the Elbe between Dresden and the Czech border. ==International relations==
