(1/3) A look at Frankfurt’s heritage architecture. Römerberg is a 9th C. central square in the “new” Altstadt | Old Town (old city was flattened during WWII). The iconic 3-peak stepped façade of Römer has fronted Rathaus | city hall since 15th C. (📷1). Beyond the 16th C. Fountain of Justice on eastern side is a row of period-style houses added in 1986 (📷2); adjacent is Schwarzer Stern | Black Star (📷3). Detail of the Fachwerk | half-timbered construction (📷4).
