Reick is a district of Dresden in the Prohlis district , in the southeast of the city. The population is around 5000. The original village of Rykh was first mentioned in 1288. The name is probably derived from the Slavic word Ryc (trench). It was incorporated into Dresden on January 1, 1913 .

The district has a very heterogeneous development. This ranges from the old village center Altreick with former farms from the Baroque era to single-family houses and cooperative housing developments from the 1920s / 30s to a large prefabricated housing estate (predominantly: Meißen type ) north of Reicker Strasse along the Rudolf-Bergander- Ring. On a smaller scale, new residential buildings were also built after reunification .

Until the summer of 2017, Dresden-Reick will have the second tallest structure in Dresden, the 220-meter-high chimney of the thermal power station .

Reick is primarily a residential area and, to a lesser extent, an industrial area.

An important industrial monument is the Dresden-Reick gas works , which Erlwein helped build and which now houses the Dresden Panometer created by Asisi .

In addition, there is the IHK training center at Mügelner Straße 40, an industrial site of a former satellite camp for Zeiss Ikon AG . Female inmates of the Flossenbürg concentration camp from Auschwitz and Bergen-Belsen had to do forced labor here from October 1944 to April 1945. Many women and girls fell victim to a typhus epidemic and a lack of medical care.

Local public transport lines are tram lines 9 and 13 (Cäcilienstraße - Altreick), bus lines 65 (Altreick - Reick station), 66 (Spitzwegstraße - Tornaer Straße), 64 ( Hülße-Gymnasium - Reick station), 87 (Spitzwegstraße - Reick station) ) the DVB and the S-Bahn S 1 (Reick station).
