Façade to the Römerberg (Roman Mountain)
On the Recent Restoration of the Romans Façade
With the acquisition of the two houses “Römer (Romans)” and “Goldener Schwan (Golden Swan)”, 600 years ago, the foundation was laid for one of the internationally most famous German town halls. Gradually, in the following centuries, other adjacent buildings (including the houses “Löwenstein (Lion Stone)” and “Wanebach”, “Frauenstein (Woman Stone)” and “Salzhaus (Salt House)”, “Laderam (Lateran)” or “Alt-Limpurg (Old Limpurg)” and “Silberberg (Silver Mountain)” added, which are now all summarized under the generic term Romans, In the course of time, the interiors of the individual town houses were rebuilt several times for the purpose of urban administration inside. But even the external appearance, that of the once rather simple stepped-gabled façades to the Romans Mountain, at the end of the 19th century no longer satisfied the representational needs of the powerful, prospering commercial and industrial city of Frankfurt am Main. With the redesign of the facades of these three houses (“Old Limpurg”, “Romans” and “Lion Stone”) to a design by Max Meckel, 1896-1900, the Romans—according to the former opinion—have received adequate appearance of its national historical significance.
While Meckel formed the facades of the three buildings individually, he put the emphasis of the decorative design on the exterior of the eponymous house “Romans”. For example, the Imperial Hall received a market-facing balcony on escutcheon-decorated consoles, with a magnificent balustrade in late Gothic forms. Between the ballroom windows, four almost life-sized imperial figures and an elaborately designed tracery canopy were arranged above the dial of the clock. Immediately below the keystone of the gable relay towers the mighty Frankfurt coat of arms.
The air raids in the Second World War also had devastating damage in the area of the Romans ensemble. The houses burned out completely. In addition to the two late-Gothic vaults of the houses “Romans” and “Golden Swan”, however, a large part of the massive facades of the houses “Old Limpurg”, “Romans” (here, however, the upper gable was completely lost) and “Lion Stone” remained largely intact, During the reconstruction of the Frankfurt city center the Romans was rebuilt in the years 1951-53, one of the outstanding tasks in the field of conservation. While the interior design of the buildings was largely in the 1950s style, the façades of the three stepped gable houses were prepared using parts of the overlying substance.
Remarkable is also the handling of the post-war period with the two destroyed, once important historical half-timbered houses “Woman Stone” and “Salt House”. The new building built in the early 1950s as a gabled double house arouses associations with the half-timbered construction of the lost predecessor buildings and at the same time self-confidently displays the modern construction method thanks to its slender grid of reinforced concrete construction. Although the mosaic decor of the wall panels certainly cannot and should not be an adequate substitute for the magnificent facades of the historic buildings, the twin dwelling represents an independent achievement within the reconstruction planning after the war. It holds commemorative values and yet creates something new. From the historically disguised ground floor zone rises the visible reinforced concrete structure on the upper floor. Their system merges with the monumental mural by Wilhelm Geissler “Phoenix from the ashes” facing Paulsplatz to the central Frankfurt memorial to commemorate the destruction of war and reconstruction.
The decision in the context of the recent refurbishment of a color scheme, which is based on the appearance of the Romans at the time of its restoration in 1951-53, had design consequences especially for the field of building sculpture. In addition to extensive restoration work on the tracery parapet of the balcony, the coats of arms and imperial statutes, which had been heavily colored in 1975, had to be gently cleaned and, as in 1952/53, painted in natural stone. Subsequently, the figures were given back their former gilding in the field of insignia and “precious metal” accessories. The ornamental gilding of natural stone reflects an aesthetic conception of the post-war period, as it still shows, for example, in numerous commercial buildings on Roman Mountain and in Braubach Street.
The Romans has always been adapted to the exterior taste of the time, as the multiple transformations since 1900 impressively demonstrate. The design of the façade, which has now been completed, certainly reflects today’s aesthetic conceptions; At the same time, as an approach to the design of the early 1950s, it honors the achievements of post-World War II reconstruction.

The exterior features of the set of buildings reflect a wide breadth of Frankfurt and Germany’s history, even though they were designed at the beginning of the 20th century. The famous three-peaked façade has medieval elements of design.
