Haus zum Grünen Schild in Frankfurt am Main, Historical residence in Judengasse, Frankfurt, Germany.
The Haus zum Grünen Schild stood with a 4.70-meter-wide facade and extended 13 meters deep into the narrow Judengasse street.
Constructed in 1711 after the Great Jewish Fire, the building became the residence of Mayer Amschel Rothschild in 1784, purchased for 11,000 guilders.
The building contained rare features for Judengasse, including a ground-floor water well and two basement spaces that connected neighboring houses through passages.
The location of the former building is now marked by Stolpersteine, memorial stones that commemorate Jewish victims near the old Frankfurt Synagogue.
The structure functioned as a double house, with the right half called 'The Ark' belonging to the Schiff family who operated a money exchange business.
