two hours in Frankfurt

On it goes to the Hauptwache 11 . By relocatingvehicle traffic, Frankfurt has gained a central squareagain. One can stroll in the shadow of the Kathari-nenkirche, breathe some fresh air, or sit down in thebaroque Café Hauptwache over a glass of “Ebbelwoi” (cider) and aserving of “Handkäs” (a specialty cheese) and do what Frankfurterslove to do most – “babbeln“ (to chat). The notorious German robber ofthe Rhine, “Schinder-hannes”, was once a “guest” in the former guard-house of the city militia dating from the 18th century, too – but withbread and water. More modern is the mobility information centre across the street, the„Verkehrsinsel“ 16 , a mine of information on local public transportfor locals, tourists and visitors to Frankfurt. One can refuel here, too – at the first solar filling station in Frankfurt.

Fressgass, Alte Oper, Skyscrapers, Railway Station Area Via Biebergasse and Große Bockenheimer Straße – known locally as „Freßgass“ 10 on account of its many eateries – one reaches the Alten Oper 7 [Old Opera House]. We are approaching the well-known Frankfurt skyline – from below. A lot of money is moving throughthe towers of high finance. Everybody can get a bird’s-eye view on thisfrom the viewing platform on top of the 200 metre-high Maintower.Neue Mainzer Straße continues on through the banking quarter to thebuilding of the European Central Bank 23 and to the Schauspiel-und Opernhaus 8 [Playhouse and Opera] at Willy-Brandt-Platz. On the way to the Hauptbahnhof 19 [Main Railway Station], the adjacent station area has a lot of what makes Frankfurt interesting. One meets every nation and encounters the most diverse forms of theservices sector around Kaiserstraße. There are art and culture, mosquesand galleries, investment bankers, greengrocers and brothels here, allhoused in close proximity in Wilhelminian style or ultra-modern archi-tecture. Totally colourful, lively and never boring – typically Frankfurt.And if one still has a little time left andwants to digest one’s impressions, a visitto the Palmengarten 12 [Palm Garden],the Goethehaus 4 [house whereGoethe was born], or Sachsenhausen 5is recommended.

You were en route in Frankfurt. A brief look into the history and space of asmall metropolis. We enjoyed your visit. Hope to see you again soon!

Have fun in Frankfurt am Main !

from the Römer to the Kleinmarkthalle People have been en route in Frankfurt for centuries. This already begins with the town’s origins when Charlemagne had to cross the Main river on the run from the Saxons. Today, approximately 670,000people live at this ford, on both sides of the Main; over here (hibbdebach) and over there (dribbdebach) in Sachsenhausen.Emperor Charles still stands in Frankfurt today – in front of the Historisches Museum [Museum of History] at the southern end of the Römerbergs 1 , the central square, Frankfurt’s “Guud Stubb“ or showpiece.Politics were and are being made here. In the Römer 1 , the Frank-furt Town Hall, the city council holds its meetings. And directly next to it in the Paulskirche 3 [St. Paul’s Church], the first German parlia-ment debated in 1848. The political heart of Frankfurt beats around the Fountain of Justice. Moreover, there is always something to view,celebrate and experience here. Not only soccer world champions andthe Ironman are saluted here, but this is also the location of the famousFrankfurt Christmas market every year. We are now in the Old Town. It looks old – but in parts it isn’t even old. As there was not much leftover of the narrow, labyrinthine town with its half-timbered houses after the Second World War, individual buildings were rebuilt and others reconstructed. During the next few years, additional houses inthe Old Town are to be newly erected between Römer and Dom[Cathedral] – at the cost of the 1970’s Technisches Rathaus [MunicipalEngineering Headquarters] which has to make room for them. A way of dealing with tradition and the future that’s typical for Frankfurt. Not only buildings, but also old traffic links are being reconstructed,such as the Krönungsweg [Coronation Route], which was used by the German emperors on their way from the coronation at theDom St. Bartholomäus 2 [St. Bartholomew’s Cathedral] to the festi-ve revelry in the Römer. In the cathedral itself, one can now still visit the Wahlkapelle [Election Chapel] where the electors agreed on a newemperor. En route from yesterday to today, we are now passing theMuseum für Moderne Kunst [Museum of Modern Art], also called the“piece of cake” on account of its shape, and arrive at the Kleinmarkthal-le [Covered Market] – the (not always cheap) gem of the “melting pot”Frankfurt. Here one can get everything one’s heart – or more accurately:stomach – desires. From “Worscht und Weck“ (sausage roll) through the obligatory “Grüne Soße“ (green sauce) to a variety of delicacies from each of the 174 nations that call Frankfurt home. En route with all senses.

via the Zeil to the Hauptwache Invigorated in such a way, one can now turn into the shopping district.Unrestrained consumption is the order of the day under the sycamoretrees of the Zeil 9 between Konstablerwache and Hauptwache 11 .Or in the roofed over and architecturally attractive shopping mall “My Zeil“. One can shop there on many levels linked by Europe’s longest escalator.
