Attractions in Historical Frankfurt

Frankfurt has had a complete facelift and no longer resembles a city of its age. This Old Town was devastated by the bombs that were dropped in World War II so nearly all of the buildings were reconstructed. Here is a brief introduction to the most common attractions and the history behind them.

Roemerberg is the most important attraction as it is the oldest structure in the city and because of the cathedral that lies as a back drop to the attractively reconstructed houses.

Roemerberg, or "Frankfurt's Gut Stubb" meaning "good living room" in English, has played an important role for over a thousand years for executions and celebrations. The Christmas market that is held in December is truly amazing.

The Roemer is the Town Hall in Frankfurt and has been since 1405. While the building does house many of the municipal offices, including the office for registration, the visitors to the Hall can view the Emperor's Hall, or Kaisersaal, where many emperors and kings have held coronation banquets.
