St Paul's Church is a Protestant church in Paulsplatz, Frankfurt am Main with important political symbolism in Germany. It is a parish of the Protestant Church in Hesse and Nassau, a United member church of the Evangelical Church in Germany. It is notable for being the seat of the 1848 Frankfurt Parliament, the first publicly and freely-elected German legislative body. Although now a United Protestant church, it was started as a Lutheran church in 1789—coincidentally the same year as the French Revolution.
The Free City of Frankfurt, then governing its legally non-separated Lutheran state church, commissioned Johann Andreas Liebhardt (de) to construct the oval-shaped central church building in 1789.[2] The new church building was to replace the former Church of the Discalced (Barfüßerkirche), which had been torn down in 1786 due to dilapidation. Constructions halted during the Napoleonic wars. The new building was completed between 1829 and 1833 by Johann Friedrich Christian Hess (de), whereupon the organ loft was disconnected in 1833. Between 1786 and 1833 Lutheran services were held at the Old St Nicholas Church in the Römerberg square to the south, also owned by the free city and then actually used as garrison church for its troops.
St. Paul's was reopened on the centennial of the Frankfurt Parliament. Due to financial restraints and an altered concept of use, the original inner form was dramatically altered by the architrectural team of Rudolf Schwarz. An inserted floor now divides the basement—which currently serves as a display room—from the actual hall in the main floor.

Als im Zuge der bürgerlichen Märzrevolution 1848 ein Sitz für das erste demokratisch gewählte gesamtdeutsche Parlament, die Nationalversammlung, gesucht wurde, bot sich die Paulskirche als größter und modernster Saal Frankfurts an. Am 18. März 1848 überreichten die Frankfurter Rechtsanwälte Binding und Friedrich Siegmund Jucho dem evangelischen Gemeindevorstand ein Schreiben, in dem sie um die Bereitstellung der Paulskirche baten. Erst nach den Frankfurter Barrikadenkämpfen vom 18. September 1848 in der Folge der Schleswig-Holstein-Krise, bei der die Nationalversammlung dem preußischen Waffenstillstand mit Dänemark während des schleswig-holsteinischen Krieges mangels eigener exekutiver Mittel hatte zustimmen müssen, und noch stärker nach der standrechtlichen Erschießung des Abgeordneten Robert Blum durch österreichisches Militär als Folge der Niederschlagung des Oktoberaufstand in Wien kam es im Frankfurter Gemeindevorstand zu Auseinandersetzungen über die Nutzung der Kirche zu politischen Zwecken.
In aller Eile nahm man Ende März 1848 die notwendigen Umbauten vor: Wände und Fenster der Kirche wurden mit Fahnen in den neuen Bundesfarben Schwarz-Rot-Gold geschmückt, die Kanzel wurde mit einem Tuch verhüllt, die Orgel durch einen breiten Vorhang verdeckt, der ein Frescogemälde von Philipp Veit zeigte: die Germania mit Fahne und Schwert, rechts und links von je ein Lorbeerkranz mit vaterländischen Versen. Anstelle des Altars wurde der Präsidententisch aufgebaut. „Wie völlig man sofort nach Eröffnung der Verhandlungen von dem kirchlichen Charakter des Versammlungsortes absah, fand seinen klarsten Ausdruck in der schroffen Ablehnung eines Eröffnungsgebetes, wobei Raveaux sagte, das Beten gehört in die Kirche und an das Wort erinnerte: Hilf dir selbst, so wird dir Gott helfen.
Vom 31. März bis zum 3. April 1848 war die Kirche Versammlungsort des Vorparlaments, das die Wahl zur Nationalversammlung vorbereitete. Am 18. Mai 1848 trat die Nationalversammlung zum ersten Mal hier zusammen und wurde deshalb auch Paulskirche oder Paulskirchenparlament genannt.
Am 29. Juni 1848 wählte die Frankfurter Nationalversammlung hier Erzherzog Johann zum Reichsverweser und damit zum ersten von einem Parlament gewählten deutschen Staatsoberhaupt. Nach dem Scheitern der Märzrevolution legte er das Amt jedoch Ende 1849 wieder nieder.
As a seat , was searched for the first democratically elected all- German parliament, the National Assembly in the course of the bourgeois revolution of March 1848 , the St. Paul's Church offered the largest and most modern hall of Frankfurt. On 18 March 1848 presented the Frankfurt Lawyers Binding and Friedrich Siegmund Jucho the evangelical parish council a letter in which they asked for the provision of St. Paul's Church . As early as 21 March said the then senior Dancker behalf of all board members agree with joy and instructed the sexton Meyer , the Preparatory Committee to lend a hand . It was only after the Frankfurt barricades of 18 September 1848 in the wake of the Schleswig -Holstein crisis , in which the National Assembly had to approve the Prussian armistice with Denmark over the Schleswig-Holstein war, lack of own executive agent , and even more after the martial law shooting of deputies Robert Blum through Austrian military as consequence of the suppression of the October insurrection in Vienna occurred in Frankfurt parish council to disputes over the use of the church for political purposes .
In all haste to the end of March 1848 at the necessary conversions before : walls and windows of the church were decorated with flags in the new German colors black , red and gold , the pulpit was covered with a cloth , the organ covered by a broad curtain of a Frescogemälde by Philipp Veit showed : the Germania with flag and sword , right and left , each with a laurel wreath with patriotic verses. Instead of the altar of the presidential table was set up. How completely you refrained immediately after the opening of the negotiations of the ecclesial character of the meeting place , found its clearest expression in the harsh rejection of an opening prayer, which Raveaux said the prayer belongs to the church and remembered the word : Help is yourself, so help you God .
From 31 March to 3 April 1848 the church was meeting the Pre-Parliament , which prepared the election for the National Assembly . On 18 May 1848 joined the National Assembly for the first time together here and was also called Paul's Church St. Paul's Church or Parliament.
On 29 June 1848 here chose the Frankfurt National Assembly Archduke John as regent , and thus for the first elected by a parliament German head of state. After the failure of the March Revolution, he left the office end of 1849 again .

Frankfurt Cathedral
Frankfurt Cathedral (German: Frankfurter Dom, officially Kaiserdom Sankt Bartholomäus) is a Roman Catholic Gothic church located in the centre of Frankfurt am Main, Germany. It is dedicated to Saint Bartholomew.
The cathedral is the largest religious building in the city and a former collegiate church. As former election and coronation church of the Holy Roman Empire, the cathedral is one of the major buildings of the Empire history and was mainly in the 19th century a symbol of national unity.
The present church building is the third church in the same place. Since the late 19th excavated century buildings can be traced back to the 7th century. The history is closely linked with the General history of Frankfurt and the Frankfurt old town because the cathedral had an associated role as religious counterpart of the Royal Palace Frankfurt.
