Romerberg

Romerberg is the public square in the old town of Frankfurt. Like all public squares, it serves as a market place and for celebrations and political meetings.


The Fountain of Justice



The Romer



It is the seat of Frankfurt's administration since the 15th century

Students gathered here to burn books by writers who were deemed un-German to the Nazi's ideology. Heune said "where books are burned, people aren’t far behind.” How true.
