Frankfurter Römer
The Frankfurter Römer is one of Frankfurt am Main’s most iconic landmarks, serving as the city’s town hall for more than 600 years. Located on the Römerberg square in the Altstadt, the complex began in 1405 when the city council purchased two patrician houses, “Zum Römer” and “Zum Goldenen Schwan,” which were gradually expanded into a group of nine interconnected buildings with six courtyards. Its distinctive three-gabled façade, reconstructed after World War II, is a symbol of the city’s resilience and heritage. Inside lies the Kaisersaal, or Imperial Hall, once the site of coronation banquets for Holy Roman Emperors, now adorned with portraits of 52 rulers. The Römer continues to function as the seat of the Lord Mayor and city council, while also hosting weddings, civic ceremonies, and public celebrations. Overlooking the bustling Römerberg, where markets and festivals take place year-round, the Römer embodies Frankfurt’s blend of medieval tradition and modern civic life, making it a must-see for visitors to the city.
