When I went to this place, there were a lot of shopping centers inside, and I could see people riding horses here to stroll around. I felt very free."Frankfurt.Frankfurt City Centre (Old Town)71m from downtownHighlights: The Roman Forum is located in the center of Old Frankfurt. It is also the city of old city hall.

This Gothic church was built between the 13th and 15th centuries. In the 14th century, it became the coronation site of the Germanic kings. A total of ten emperors of the Holy Roman Empire held coronation ceremonies here. Therefore, it is also known as the "Emperor's Cathedral". The Frankfurt Cathedral was once destroyed by fire, and now it is in front of people's eyes that it was restored in 1877. The appearance of the building is different from the gray and black solemnity of ordinary Gothic churches. The walls of the Frankfurt Cathedral are brick red, and the building lines are simple and smooth. The relatively complicated building is the towering tower. The tower was built in the 15th century and is 95 meters high. It can be seen at a glance from many places in the city, which is very eye-catching. There are 322 steps in the tower to the top of the tower. You can climb the tower for 3 euros and enjoy the city scenery of Frankfurt, but the space in the tower is narrow, so pay attention to safety when climbing. Inside the church The towering curved dome in the church is majestic, and the four huge base columns form a "crown" shape at the top. Although the huge glass windows have no gorgeous decoration, the good lighting makes the interior of the church more holy. bright. The central altar is quite eye-catching, the main altar was built in the 15th century, and the relief on it shows the scene of the crucifixion of Jesus. The painted reliefs on the north wing corridor of the remnants of the colored statues of the central altar money are also very special and worth seeing. The museum of the church displays the mass ritual items from the 14th century to the 20th century, including vestments, wine glasses, holy vessels, etc., which are worth viewing.Show Less

Totally worth a visit 😍"Frankfurt.Frankfurt City Centre (Old Town)44m from downtownHighlights: This is one of the landmarks of Frankfurt. Located on the Roman Forum, the three gabled buildings are the city hall of Frankfurt, because the middle one used to be the residence of the Roman merchants, hence the name Romer. It used to be the place where the emperor was crowned and is now the office of the mayor. On the second floor of the building is the Kaisersaal, the place where the Holy Roman Emperor held his coronation ceremony. The walls of the hall are hung with portraits of 52 emperors from Charlemagne to Franz II.

His former residence is also a German Romantic Museum, which displays many paintings and sculptures, and has a visual and audio-visual experience!"Frankfurt.Frankfurt City Centre (Old Town)325m from downtownHighlights: The Goethe House is adjacent to the Goethe Museum. On August 28, 1749, the famous German poet Johann Wolfgang Goethe was born here and spent his youth here. The famous "The Sorrows of Young Werther" and the prologue of "Faust" are completed here. Like the old German dwellings, the former residence is quite inconspicuous. During World War II, the building was almost completely destroyed by bombing. After the war, people faithfully restored the original appearance of the former residence. Precious furniture, authentic works of art, valuable ornaments, books, portraits, and manuscripts carefully moved elsewhere during the war were brought back after the war, and they are now sitting securely in the places that once belonged to them. Overview of the former residence The entrance to the former residence is at the black iron gate at the back door of the house. The Goethe House has four floors, with the hall, yellow room, blue room and kitchen on the first floor. Hangers, Frankfurt-style wooden cabinets and safes are placed in the hall, and a hidden door on the side leads to the underground wine cellar. In the yellow room (Yellowroom) on the left side of the hall, there is a collection of portraits of Goethe in his youth. The blue room was used as a dining room, decorated with a baroque round dining table, a mirror, and a sewing machine that Goethe's mother used to use by the window. The living room climbs up the luxuriously carved stairs to the second floor, where the living room and music room are mainly located. The living room is very spacious and decorated with luxurious and elegant red velvet. Goethe highly respects Chinese culture. The wallpaper in the living room is full of rich Chinese style, so the living room is also called "Peking" hall. It was here that Goethe chatted and laughed with writers, poets and dramatists from Germany and other European countries. The concert hall is also a frequent hangout for the music-loving Goethe family. An old clavichord is kept here, and the surrounding walls are decorated with portraits of members of the Goethe family. The room where Goethe was born The room where Goethe was born is located on the northeast side of the third floor. The newspaper by the window published the news of Goethe's baptism after birth, and the date of birth "August 28, 1749" marked by Goethe himself. In addition, a portrait of Goethe in his later years hangs in the room. The library and gallery on the third floor are also worth a visit, with a collection of 2,000 volumes. These books are well preserved, slightly yellowed, and have a sense of age. Goethe also likes to collect art collections very much. In the gallery on the third floor, you can see many masterpieces of German and Dutch schools. The study on the fourth floor of the former residence of the study houses the high-footed desk used by Goethe. Goethe wrote "Faust", "William Meister's Studying and Roaming Years" and a large number of poems in his narrow and simple studio. The room adjacent to the study houses the puppet theatre, which was featured in Goethe's "Wilhelm Meister's Studying and Wandering Years". On the north side of the fourth floor, there is an exhibition of the former residence of Goethe, where you can see the documents about the building, the customs of Frankfurt, manuscripts, notes, letters and other precious materials of Goethe when he lived in Frankfurt. After visiting the Goethe House, you can go to the Goethe Museum adjacent to it. The museum has a total of 14 exhibition halls displaying paintings from the Goethe era.Show Less
