Loebtau is a district in western Dresden, Sachsen, with about 21,210 inhabitants. The Weisseritz river, which suffered devastating flooding in 2002, flows through the northern part of the district. Loebtau developed as a working-class neighbourhood in the 19th century during Dresden's industrial expansion. The Kesselsdorfer Strasse is the main commercial street, with shops, restaurants, and a weekly market.
Dresden's Altstadt is about 3 kilometres east. Freital borders to the southwest. The district has gentrified noticeably since the 2000s, with renovated Gruenderzeit apartment buildings attracting students and young professionals. The Bienertpark along the Weisseritz provides green space and connects to cycling paths along the river valley.
