9:31 am
it's a classic among germany's city trips. frankfort, with its exciting contrasts from the skyline to the old town and from the tavern culture around the cider called every voice that i am eager to try to the night life in the station district. well, and because it's summer i'll also be on the water. the poorest we also make a detour to the city. the payments are easy and the speed ah, our globe trotting takes us to greenland from the capital news to be endless. and this weeks your video shows impressions of an adventurous journey through it was biggest. ah hi, finance high rise. this and high rent frankfurt center. it was almost destroyed and
9:32 am
were to clear space for a new buildings. i'd like to get a birds eye view of it all. the mine tell us has an observation deck in 30 seconds us since 200 meters in good weather it's. we're a see the view of the city and the region has brought other travelers up here to become from all over the way you from the visual band in paris, way from the netherlands. what's the special about the city? why? like all the buildings. it's kinda like new york and also i'm like, i like the old part of the city now. she thing to live on. the architecture. the contrast of old in unison. that's really nice. well, it's beautiful. it's a touch of triple. it sounds contradictory, but it's a fact in frankfort. there is a new old town, an attempt to heal the wounds of war, to structure and half the reconstruction. they want to restrict a part of the med,
9:33 am
you will city and that new old town opened in 2018. the me gemini, financial hub has rebuilt history in hospital town. ah, the area was almost totally destroyed by air raids in march 1944. now it's been resurrected as a testament to frankfurt. medieval passed the architect and planner, jordan as reconstructed the most ornate avail buildings. the golden scale was once owned by the dutch spice merchant and confectioners and fun, hama. ringback by the goldman budget now for the golden scale and partly for other buildings as well. we were lucky enough to have a great number of original elements that had survived the war club. and we
9:34 am
managed to persuade the owner of large parts of the golden scale facade to donate the stones to us he had them stored in his library buildings. i knew, oh fun home or family papers reveal details like the existence of a gilded water spout shaped like a dragon. a total of 15 buildings have been reconstructed. 20 more are entirely new, built in medical style. some people criticize the project at 1st, but today the new old town is a thing of beauty from asked and i'm for. my 1st impression is that it's beautiful . it's a static and pleasing. i can't say that about it. i think we came out very well and i didn't know how much money went into it. would that raise the question of whether it was the right investment to make investments? you know, i think it still looks very lifeless, but the human element is still missing somehow. i'd like to come to maybe that'll
9:35 am
come when the right shops move in. some shops have already opened like this wind businesses with a regional connection get preferential treatment. when trying to sign leases in new town, this barber shop has been well received. with lawyers, the sub to this area feels a little like a village off character. the shop owners all know each other. in time. besides the shops over 200 rental apartments had been built, new old town does indeed still seem a bit sterile. as though it's waiting for the people to frank 30, fill it with life. young rudolph said it was well worth it. you will get us only because we have this back. can people here remember what was seen? they can see that this was their past. so now they can also ask themselves about the future. me
9:36 am
right next to the new old town is the room, back in the old town hall. this was also destroyed in the war and rebuilt in the 1950 s. many of frankfort buildings have had a checkered history. they aren't what they were originally meant to be. saint paul's church, for instance, is no longer a church. it was the 1st structure to be rebuilt after the war business, where the 1st pan german national assembly met. after the revolution of $848.00. the 1st step on the long road to democracy in germany was kinda what again, a visit your learn here. yeah, this one community wouldn't. the mural was only put up in 1991 by 100. let's go and shows the procession of the deputies to saint paul church. these gentlemen, with solemn expressions, are supposed to be the deputy design, and there were about $200.00. and then you have seen from daily life scattered throughout and references to history as well as if you have a course. it's a bit ambiguous. on the one hand,
9:37 am
it's called the procession of the deputies to saint paul's church. but it comes across a bit like a funeral procession. and of course that alludes to the fact that the poles charged parliament failed post parliament aggregated. it's one of the birthplaces of democracy, but aside from the painting, everything, so plain and silver. what is that done for anita does retirement security. why? and that's because the church was entirely destroyed in world war 2 are now and all but the outside walls and they were lunch. but the whole interior, everything inside or all that remained, was this giant round room, asked him after the war they built the saint. paul's church to the centennial and 948, but in a very austere contemporary style and fight. give me heart to be good for communism. the agonal now were coming up from the lower darkness into the bright open space. that symbolizes the new democratic beginning in t democrats,
9:38 am
nor begin the view. it then comes from the interior was left purposely austere and the seating plain long and the floor just sandstone on the only part that's a bit fancy or is the speakers podium and the roster on behind it. well, what is this hall used for today? what it is at home, you know, it's not gonna have it towed out today. it's used for special events. and in fact, as is one of germany's most significant event locations for him all every year here . for example, the peace prize that the german dog trade has been awarded since 1950. the good prize, one of the highest honors of the city of frankfort, is also awarded here. plus major anniversary observances are held here. used for a great many thanks. for listening to the next point of interest, i'm heading forward is the river mine and the woodbine bridge. from here he can see
9:39 am
another of the cities highlights the art institute, frankfurt as a business and banking city also has a lot of art and culture to offer pretty concentrated on the banks of the mine there for the name museum or the museum embankments and right now we introduce you to the probably the most important in frankfurt. the frankfurt state museum is famous for its historical masterpieces. we see fallen heroes, mismatched couples. famous men, leasing women. in painting, painting in the steady state museum was founded in $1815.00 oldest civic museum and germany in 7000

9:41 am
good to the companion is world famous, of course, but if you look down a little, you'll see that one leg is long either may other. he's got 2 left feet wide because there's something clearly went wrong with his picture. and this painting, by monday, bears a hidden message and even touched off a scandal among his 19th century. contemporaries often asked that 1st glance, familiar dining table scene. in reality, this is a portrait of his lover together with illegitimate cause that didn't sit well with the ideals of respectable society. at the time around $870.00 and monk gave passion the twist. all of his own in that taught at the moment, created a straightforward scene of jealousy, of 2 men and one woman. i'm clearly straight to the point that one is all green, the other all yellow and she's in the middle red as a beet is quite a scene. frankfurt state museum likes taking its trenches off their pedestals
9:42 am
so they can be understood not just a minute through the stories behind the pictures. ah, i once a year frankfurt paid tribute to its many museums with a big bash on the banks of the river. mind. the institutions that take part in include the cities still museum and it's communication museum. since it was 1st health in 1988, the festival growing into the biggest in the region. now some 3000000 people come to the annual museums for fest, and there's plenty to keep them busy. the, the,

a monument on a hill above the time. it commemorates the founding of the german empire in $1871.00. the stomach command, spectacular view of the rhine valley. as far as 3 times the little town attracts around a 1000000 visitors every year. no excursion is complete without a stop at one of the many cabins for a glass locally grown. the speaking of wine frankfurt has its own local varieties. this one isn't made from grapes, but apples and it's called in the local dialect, edit void, or simply apple wines who's it's poured from

a special jug called a bended into a particular kind of cut less. why the love and cut on the glass of the house? it's called that because of the lawson shade, the people of frankfurt have their own dialect. and they just call them rips the wine used to be a lot cloutier. so these ribs are there firstly to get the impression that it's much clearer than it is. and i can make it work on our plans. tell them from business when all of the pubs didn't used to serve anything to eat. so people brought their own foot wolf mitka, blocked on mid to infected widows and greasy fingers. it's easier to hold onto a class like this than one that's totally smooth. so form follows function. they may not have known it at the time, but they did it anyway. years while i'm eating, there's our weekly be me for you. every week we show your travel videos until over
