You're standing on the Römerberg, Frankfurt's old town square, right across from the Old St. Nicholas Church. In front of you is that famous façade with three pointed gables side by side. That's the Römer, Frankfurt's city hall for more than six hundred years. Strictly speaking, only the middle house carries the name. On the left is Haus Löwenstein, on the right Haus Alt-Limpurg.
