Its summer ill also be on the water. Course we also make a detour to the citys famous art museum the deed to. Our globe trotter takes us to greenland from the capital nuke to the endless ice. And this weeks beer video shows a precious and adventurous journey through it was biggest. High finance high rises and high rent Frankfurt Center was almost destroyed in world war 2 it cleared space for a New Buildings id like to get a birds eye view of it all my intel has an Observation Deck in 30 seconds if you ascent 200 meters in good weather its worth seeing the view of the city and the region has brought other travelers op europe to they come from all over. Where youre from and theres your band in paris where youre from the netherlands but whats so special about the city while i call it buildings its kind of like new york and. Im like i like the part of the city that she took to make the architectural the contrast of all the nina thats really nice its beautiful. It sounds contradictory but its a fact in frankfurt there is a new old town and attempt to heal the wounds of war destruction and half the reconstruction they want to teresa wrecked a part of the many evil city and thats new alltel opened in 2018. Germanys Financial Hub has rebuilt history in the heart of its old town. The area was almost totally destroyed by arrowheads in march 1904 now its been resurrected as a testament to frankfurts medieval past. Architect and plan a young widow down as reconstructed the most donate of the Old Buildings the golden scale was once owned by the dutch spice merchant out confection a hum fun hummel. Ringback gotten by the golden bargain 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. Here and we managed to persuade the owner of large parts of the golden scales facade to donate the stones to us he had them stored in his library building. Fund kamel family papers reveal details like the existence of a gilded waterspout shaped like a dragon. A total of 15 buildings have been reconstructed 20 more are entirely new theyre built in medieval style some people criticize the project at 1st but today the new old town is a thing of beauty from aston id finished my 1st impression is that its beautiful its aesthetically pleasing but i can say that about it a decorative facades cannot very well i dont know how much money went into it that that raises the question of whether it was the right investment to make investments only be the thinnest or nothing now i think it still looks very lifeless but can i say that the Human Element is still missing somehow i come to maybe that will come when the right shops move and some shops have already opened like this wind bag. Businesses with a regional connection get preferential treatment when trying to sign leases in a new old town this barbershop has been well received. This is what this is this area feels a little like a village. To give a shop owners all know each other a short time on. Both sides of the shops over 200 rental apartments have been built the new old time does indeed still seem a bit sterile as though its waiting for the people of frankfort to fill it with life. Says it was well worth it. Only because we have this back can people here remember what was they can see that this was their past so now they can also ask themselves about the future. Right next to the new old town is the back and the Old Town Hall this was also destroyed in the war and rebuild in the 1950 s. Many of frankfurts buildings have had a checkered history they arent what they were originally meant to be St Pauls Church for instance is no longer a church it was the 1st structure to be rebuilt after the war this is where the 1st pan German National assembly met after the revolutions of 848 a 1st step on the long road to democracy in germany was going to want to get a visitor learn here. The mural was only put up in 1901 its by your highness cuts go and shows the procession of the deputies to St Pauls Church. Of the do the biggest gentleman by solemn expressions are supposed to be the deputies there were about 200. 00 nuns and then you have scenes from daily life scattered throughout and references to history as well of course its a bit ambiguous on the one hand its called the procession of the deputies to St Pauls Church but it comes across a bit like a funeral procession and of course that alludes to the fact that the pauls Church Parliament failed parliament. The 3rd and its one of the birthplaces of democracy but aside from the painting everything so plain and so what is that one doesnt government. And thats because the church was entirely destroyed in world war 2 with it are now all but the outside walls they were left standing but the whole interior everything inside burnt all that remained was this giant round room after the war they rebuilt St Pauls Church for the centennial and 948 but in a very austere a contemporary style and inside. The. Court for. A group who are north now were coming up from the lower darkness into the bright open space that symbolizes the new democratic beginning. Then there will be more begin the more you get and. The interior was left purposely austere the seating plain. And the floor just sandstone or. The only part thats a bit fancier is the speakers podium and the rostrum behind it or from within what is this hall used for today the home the ordinal can look a bit order out today its used for special events in fact its one of germanys most significant Event Locations every year here for example the peace prize that the german book trade has been awarded since 1950 the got a prize one of the highest honors of the city of frankfurt is also awarded here plus major anniversary observances are held here its a. For a great many things. Its just its just. The next point of interest im heading for is the river mine bridge from here you can see another of the citys highlights the art institute. For it as a business and banking city also has a lot of art and culture to offer pretty concentrated on the banks of the mine therefore the name museum or the museum and bank mint and right now we introduce you to the probably the most important is you in frankfurt. Frank church data museum is famous for its historical masterpieces we see fallen heroes. Mismatched couples. Famous man. Fascinating women. In painting after painting. Staddon was there was our 1st day the museum was founded in 815 its the oldest civic museum in germany there in 7000 square meters of space we display some 1000 works of art from 7 centuries so its a comprehensive overview of art from the middle ages to the present. Those who dont have an opportunity to visit frankfurt can take the museums virtual tour it allows you to peruse 56 outstanding works of art at the click of a mouse from the comfort of home taking you on a journey through the centuries deep into the realms of cultural history. Is for mention museum is for people by so i think its especially valuable to gather together very different people from so many centuries. The state of director philip dinant has selected exemplary works and supplemented them with background stories and notes. For example how can we tell that a famous portrait of gosh that was left unfinished for a time and only completed later. On go to his face in go to in the campania is world famous of course but if you look down a little youll see that one leg is longer than my other and hes got 2 left feet wide because so something clearly went wrong with his picture. And this painting by money bears a hidden message that even touched off a scandal among his 19th century contemporaries. Often there also because such 1st glance its a familiar dining table seen in reality this is a portrait of his lover together with her illegitimate son and of course that didnt sit well with the ideals of Respectable Society at the time around 870. 00. At the moment passion to twist all of us. Its not moment created a straightforward scene of jealousy of 2 men and one woman you can see it quite clearly it gets straight to the point one is all green the other all yellow and shes in the middle red as a beet its quite a scene. From still Museum Lights taking its treasures off their pedestals so they can be understood not just mind through the stories behind the pictures. Once a year frankfurt pays tribute to its many museums with a big bash on the banks of the river mine the institutions that take part include the citys film museum and its communication museum.

Speaking of wine frankfurt has its own local varieties this one isnt made from grapes but apples and its called in the local dialect added voice or simply apple wine. Its poured from a special jar called a bend it into a particularly kind of cut lets. Go home why the lozenge cut on the glass if. Its called that because of the lawson shapes the people of frankfurt have their own dialect and they just call them rips the apple one used to be a lot cloudier so these ribs are there firstly to give the impression that its much clearer than it is.
