Römerberg, Medieval market square in Old Town, Frankfurt, Germany
The Römerberg features half-timbered buildings surrounding a central plaza with the Gothic-style Old Town Hall at its center.
The square served as a coronation site for Holy Roman Emperors, who celebrated their ceremonies in the Imperial Hall with its collection of imperial portraits.
The square transforms into Frankfurt's winter market each December, with vendors selling traditional crafts, food, and mulled wine throughout the holiday season.
Multiple tram and bus lines connect Römerberg to Frankfurt's main train station, with stops directly at the edges of the square.
The Nikolaikirche bell tower contains 35 bells that play melodies at specific hours, marking time across the medieval square.
