Places to see in ( Frankfurt - Germany ) Goethe House
The Goethe House is a writer's house museum in the Innenstadt district of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The original building was the family residence of the Goethe family, most notably Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, until 1795. ‘As the bells tolled noon’ is how Johann Wolfgang von Goethe describes his birth on 28. August 1749 in ‘Poetry and Truth’. Today, the Goethe House and the Goethe Museum stand on the site of his birthplace. The 17th century building was destroyed by bombs in the Second World War. Nevertheless, the house has been faithfully restored to the original. The furnishings of the kitchen, living room and reception rooms correspond to bourgeois life of the Late Baroque period.
Goethe’s study on the second floor is equipped as in the past. This is where the master wrote ‘Götz von Berlichingen’, the ‘Urfaust’ and ‘The Sorrows of Young Werther’. Today, languages from all over the world can be heard in these rooms. For this is where hundreds of thousands of admirers from all corners of the globe come to on a pilgrimage.
The Goethe Museum presents an extensive collection of paintings, graphics and busts of the 18th and 19th centuries from the Late Baroque and Classicism to Romantic and Biedermeier. This vividly shows the relationship of the poet to art and to artists such as Johann Heinrich Füssli, Caspar David Friedrich and Frankfurt artists.
The non-profit Freie Deutsche Hochstift maintains the memorial, with Goethe’s parents’ house, the Goethe Museum, the poet archive and a research library. In special exhibitions, the visitors can see valuable and sensitive documents and prints from the collection, the manuscript archive and the library.

괴테의 생가와 박물관은 프랑크푸르트 시내 한복판에 위치하고 있다. 요한 볼프강 폰 괴테. 라이프치히대학교 법학과 출신인 그는 고전주의 시인이자 궁정극장 감독, 변호사를 거쳐 바이마르 공국의 재상이라는 정치인으로 까지 변신한다. 괴테는 여행을 무척 좋아했는데 37살 되던 해 인 1786년 독일에서 아무도 몰래 이탈리아로 혼자 여행을 떠난다. 괴테어록을 보면 ‘사람이 여행을 하는 것은 목적지에 도착하기 위해서가 아니라 여행하기 위해서다’라고 쓰여 있다. 여행에 관한 그의 철학을 엿볼 수 있는 대목이다. 이 라오콘 상은 괴테의 책상 옆에 놓여 있었는데 괴테는 유명작품을 집필할 때 이런 강단용 책상에서 작업을 했다고 한다. 이것은 샤를로테의 실루엣인데 25살 되던 해, 괴테는 한 달 만에 서한소설 ‘젊은 베르테르의 슬픔’을 써냈다. 내적인 동요와 짝사랑의 괴로움 때문에 결국 어두운 종말을 맞게 되는 한 젊은이의 이야기다. 2일자 신문에 출생과 동시에 세례를 받았다는 광고를 낼 정도였으니 상당한 재산가의 집안출신이라는 것을 알 수 있다. 제2차 세계 대전 때 프랑크푸르트가 연합군의 폭격으로 잿더미가 되었으나 괴테가 쓰던 가구와 소품들은 다른 곳에 갖다놓아 이렇게 다시 전시할 수 있게 되었다고 한다.

Großer Hirschgraben 23-25
60311 Frankfurt am Main
Mit dem Glockenschlage zwölf, berichtet Johann Wolfgang von Goethe in „Dichtung und Wahrheit, kam er am 28. August 1749 zur Welt. An der Stelle des Geburtshauses im Großen Hirschgraben stehen heute das Goethe-Haus und das Goethe-Museum. Der Bau aus dem 17. Jahrhundert fiel den Bomben des Zweiten Weltkrieges zum Opfer. Doch wurde das Haus originalgetreu rekonstruiert. Einrichtung und Mobiliar von Küche, Wohn- und Repräsentationsräumen entsprechen der bürgerlichen Wohnkultur des Spätbarocks.
Goethes Studierzimmer im zweiten Obergeschoss ist ausgestattet, wie es einst war. Hier schuf der Meister den „Götz von Berlichingen, den „Urfaust und „Die Leiden des jungen Werther. Heute sind in diesen Räumen Sprachen aus aller Welt zu hören. Denn hierher pilgern Jahr für Jahr Hunderttausende von Bewunderern aus allen Kontinenten.
Das Goethe-Museum präsentiert eine umfangreiche Sammlung mit Gemälden, Grafiken und Büsten des 18. und 19. Jahrhunderts vom Spätbarock über Klassizismus bis Romantik und Biedermeier. Anschaulich zeigt dies das Verhältnis des Dichters zur Kunst und zu Künstlern wie Johann Heinrich Füssli, Caspar David Friedrich und Frankfurter Malern.
Das gemeinnützige Freie Deutsche Hochstift unterhält die Gedenkstätte mit Goethes Elternhaus, dem Goethe-Museum, dem Dichterarchiv und einer Forschungsbibliothek. In Sonderausstellungen begegnen die Besucher wertvollen, empfindlichen Dokumenten und Drucken aus der Graphischen Sammlung, dem Handschriftenarchiv und der Bibliothek.
Tour in Weimar | Goethe Museum | Buchenwald Memorial ????????
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a German writer and statesman. His works include four novels; epic and lyric poetry; prose and verse dramas; memoirs; an autobiography; literary and aesthetic criticism; and treatises on botany, anatomy, and color. -Wikipedia
Buchenwald (1937-1945) became a synonym for the crimes committed by the National Socialists. Until 1950, the Soviets used the grounds for a special camp; after 1958 the German Democratic Republic established the “Nationale Mahn- und Gedenkstätte” here. After 1990, the memorial was reorganized according to a new concept now also providing for commemoration of the fates of other victim groups. New exhibitions place the crimes in their historical contexts. The history of Weimar and Buchenwald provides a unique historical resonator for historical-political education work. This uniqueness lies in the proximity between the camp and Weimar as a cultural centre, and in the access thus offered to the past. Opening hours Museums | 10 - 18 Uhr The outdoor facilities are accessible daily until sundown. |
Frankfurt, City Walk - Germany 4K Travel Channel
The next morning we first visit Goethe's birthplace at the Großer Hirschgraben. Johann Wolfgang Goethe lived here until he went to Weimar at the age of 26. The phase was interrupted by his years of study in Leipzig and Strasbourg. In the 2nd World War, the house was destroyed, but the facilities could be brought to safety before. From 1947 to 1951 the reconstruction took place. The building to the left of it is currently being converted into a modern museum.
Without staying long at the Goethe House, we go on to the Roßmarkt, a square with the Gutenberg monument in the center. One set it up to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the invention of the letterpress art.
From here we can see the panorama terrace on the Maintower, which we will visit later.
Directly next to the Roßmarkt is the Goetheplatz. This square is also dominated by a monument. It represents, as you might expect Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. Yet, at our visit, the statue was wrapped in a European flag, which probably proves that Goethe was a European. With this action, Pulse of Europe e.V. wants to set a sign for the future of Europe and counteract the divisive tendencies.
We cross the third adjacent square, the Rathenauplatz, turn into the Steinweg and reach the Hauptwache, a central traffic junction of the city. The Hauptwache used to be a guardroom and prison in the middle of the city. The most prominent prisoner was Johann Erasmus von Senckenberg, who spent 26 years here.
The silhouette of the Hauptwache has changed considerably in recent decades. In 2005, one demolished the telecommunications tower behind the Galeria Kaufhof and replaced by a huge shopping mall and business center. We stroll along the Zeil, Frankfurt's most important shopping street, in the meantime planted with trees.
We also find Christmas stands at the Hauptwache. The one with Christmas cookies for dogs seemed the most original to us.
Suddenly we see a group of people with warning vests carrying lots of shopping bags. They stand motionless on the sidewalk. The running passers-by look somewhat surprised at the group.
We briefly enter into conversation with Prof. Snežana Golubović from the Frankfurt University of Applied Sciences, who stage artistic interventions in public space here.

Am nächsten Morgen besuchen wir zunächst Goethes Geburtshaus am Großen Hirschgraben. Hier lebte Johann Wolfgang Goethe bis er, im Alter von 26 Jahren, nach Weimar ging. Unterbrochen wurde die Phase durch seine Studienjahre in Leipzig und Straßburg. Im 2. Weltkrieg wurde das Haus völlig zerstört, aber die Einrichtungen konnten vorher in Sicherheit gebracht werden. Von 1947 bis 1951 erfolgte der Wiederaufbau. Das Gebäude links davon wird zur Zeit in ein modernes Museum umgebaut.
Wir gehen weiter, ohne uns am Goethehaus lange aufzuhalten, zum Roßmarkt, in dessen Zentrum das Gutenberg-Denkmal steht. Man errichtete es zur 400 Jahrfeier der Erfindung der Buchdruckkunst.
Von hier aus erblicken wir die Aussichtsterrasse auf dem Maintower, die wir später besuchen wollen.
Direkt an den Roßmarkt schließt der Goetheplatz an, der ebenfalls von einem Denkmal überragt wird. Es stellt, wie könnte es anders sein, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe dar. Bei unserem Besuch war er aber in eine europäische Flagge gehüllt, womit wohl bewiesen ist, dass Goethe ein Europäer war. Pulse of Europe e.V. will damit ein Zeichen setzen für die Zukunft Europas und den spaltenden Tendenzen entgegenwirken.
Wir überqueren den dritten angrenzenden Platz, den Rathenauplatz, biegen in den Steinweg ein und erreichen die Hauptwache, einen zentralen Verkehrsknoten der Stadt. Die Hauptwache war einst Wachlokal und Gefängnis inmitten der Stadt. Prominentester Häftling war Johann Erasmus von Senckenberg, der hier 26 Jahre verbrachte.
Die Silhouette der Hauptwache hat sich die letzten Jahrzehnte stark verändert. Das Fernmeldehochhaus hinter der Galeria Kaufhof wurde 2005 abgerissen und durch eine riesige Shopping Mall und ein Business Center ersetzt. Wir spazieren noch ein wenig die Zeil, Frankfurts wichtigste Einkaufsstraße, entlang, die mittlerweile mit Bäumen bepflanzt wurde.
Auch an der Hauptwache sind eine Reihe von Weihnachtsständen aufgebaut. Am originellsten erschien uns der Stand mit Weihnachtsgebäck für Hunde.
Plötzlich sehen wir eine Gruppe von Menschen mit Warnwesten, die jede Menge Einkaufstaschen tragen. Sie stehen regungslos erstarrt auf dem Gehweg. Die vorbei eilenden Passanten sehen verwundert auf die Gruppe.
Wir kommen kurz mit Frau Prof. Snežana Golubović von der Frankfurt Universität of Applied Sciences ins Gespräch, die hier künstlerische Interventionen im öffentlichen Raum inszenieren.

Places to see in ( Frankfurt - Germany ) Eiserner Steg
Places to see in ( Frankfurt - Germany ) Eiserner Steg
The striking steel construction of the Ironbridge even impressed the painter Max Beckmann (1884-1950), who immortalized the pedestrian bridge on several of his Expressionist paintings. For since 1869, the Eiserne Steg characterizes the Mainuferpanorama with its concavely curved metal arches, which should embody the belief in progress of the then industrial era. At that time, Frankfurt citizens financed this bridge and it still fulfills its purpose: to bring the pedestrians from Hibb de Bach to Dribb de Bach, ie from Frankfurt's old town to the opposite district of Sachsenhausen.
The Ironbridge, meanwhile one of the most famous monuments in Frankfurt, was indeed destroyed in the Second World War, but rebuilt one year after the end of the war. In the years 1993/94 a fundamental renovation took place, with which the bridge received at every rising an elevator, in order to make it passable also for wheelchairs and prams. The iron construction is adorned by a banner with a quotation from Homer's Odyssey in Greek: Auf ΕΠΙ ΟΙΝΟΠΑ ΠΟΝΤΟΝ ΑΛΛΟΘΡΟΟΥ ΑΝΘΡΣ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΟΥΣ (Sailing on wine-colored sea to other people) .The inscription of the artist Hagen Bonifer was created during the event Easter Walk on the occasion of the Goethe anniversary in 1999.
A walk across the Ironbridge offers a magnificent view of the skyline and the Museumsufer. On the Old Town side of the Ironbridge is the landing stage of the Frankfurt excursion boats. On opposite Sachsenhäuser shore are restaurant ships with pedal boats and rowboat rentals. A special attraction every second Saturday is the Frankfurt flea market, which stretches with colorful junk stalls up to the Holbeinsteg.

EUROPE'S OLDEST JEWISH CEMETERY in FRANKFURT, GERMANY ✡️
SUBSCRIBE: - Let's go visit the very historic Jewish Cemetery in Frankfurt, Germany, which dates back to the year 1272, as evidenced by the few remaining gravestones. It is among the oldest of its kind in Europe. By 1828, space had been exhausted and the cemetery, containing nearly 7000 graves, had to be closed.
In 1942 the National Socialists demolished approximately 4666 gravestones and piled up the rubble for removal, which you are going to see in this video here. 175 gravestones were removed, among them is the gravestone of Mayer Amschel Rothschild, founder of the banking dynasty.
Frankfurt, a central German city on the river Main, is a major financial hub that's home to the European Central Bank. It's the birthplace of famed writer Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, whose former home is now the Goethe House Museum. Like much of the city, it was damaged during World War II and later rebuilt. The reconstructed Altstadt (Old Town) is the site of Römerberg, a square that hosts an annual Christmas market.
Germany is a Western European country with a landscape of forests, rivers, mountain ranges and North Sea beaches. It has over 2 millennia of history. Berlin, its capital, is home to art and nightlife scenes, the Brandenburg Gate and many sites relating to WWII. Munich is known for its Oktoberfest and beer halls, including the 16th-century Hofbräuhaus. Frankfurt, with its skyscrapers, houses the European Central Bank.

Walking in WEIMAR / Germany - where Goethe & Schiller lived - 4K 60fps (UHD)
Weimar is a city in Thuringia / Germany, known as the place where famous German poets Goethe & Schiller lived. A joint monument is in front of the German National Theater.
During this winterwalk we experience a laid back city. We walk around the small Old Town, have time to check the side streets and end of at the Weimar Atrium mall. When you are in nearby Erfurt, it's easy to take a 30' train to Weimar and even continue some 30' further to Jena - the hometown of Carl Zeiss.

Frankfurt city | River Rhine Cruise | Travel Vlog
On my way, back to the Caribbean, I transited through Frankfurt, Germany. I used the opportunity to explore the city and took a small Rhine river tour.
It was a great day as I walked, explore and noticed that Frankfurt is so much more like a modern American city than any European city I have visited.
It has a great skyline, modern buildings etc. plus the River Rhine tour was great, it was amazing to see all the small cities along the shoreline and of course, those medieval castles.
Frankfurt airport is a major hub, so it serves a great number of people, but it is worth stopping over and seeing the city and what it has to offer.
More on Frankfurt:
The most international city in Germany, the largest financial centre on the continent, the historical city of coronations, the city of Goethe and the Frankfurt School…
In brief, to the smallest metropolis in the world, in which there is a lot to discover at close hand. Whether this glance at the city’s home page is the start of a longer, maybe even permanent, stay on the banks of the Main, or if, as a business visitor, you only have a limited amount of time available: you will find that the city has interesting offers for extensive tours of the city, cultural enjoyment and attractive shopping trips waiting for you.
Almost one in three of the people living in Frankfurt do not hold a German passport. No matter where visitors come from, they will always meet people in Frankfurt who speak their language and a restaurant that serves their favourite food. The open and hospitable atmosphere in Frankfurt stems from its centuries-old role as a trading centre. This liberal and democratic tradition of the city may be one reason for the fact that people from very diverse cultures have lived here in peace with one another for a long time. They have all contributed to making this city shine slightly differently from every angle, like a jewel shines slightly differently when you look at it from different sides.
This starts with the city’s architecture. Those who go and have a drink in a cosy cider pub on a nice summer evening will experience the atmosphere that even Frankfurt’s most famous son, Johann Wolfgang Goethe, would still easily recognise. The view of Frankfurt’s bold high-rise architecture is just as attractive and yet
very different. Directly opposite the high-rise buildings, on the other side of the Main, a unique collection of 13 museums has been developed and these are devoted to different works of art, from classical paintings to modern media.
River Rhine:
he Rhein (Rhine) is the biggest river in Germany. With a length of 1.320 km, of which 865 km in Germany, the Rhein (Rhine) river is one of the most important waterways in Europe.
To the north Rüdesheim the Rhein (Rhine) river breaks through the Rheinisches Schiefergebirge (rhenish slate rocks). Up to Bonn it is called Mittelrhein (Middlerhine). The Upper Middle Rhein (Rhine) from Rüdesheim to Koblenz - valley of the Lorelei - was appointed to the Upper Middle Rhine Valley World Heritage by the UNESCO in 2002, representative for the whole Rhein (Rhine) river.
