One of the most popular attractions in the Roemerberg is the Roemer building, which has been the City Hall for Frankfurt for over 600 years. There is also the Justice Fountain located in the center, although it cannot be seen from this view. The Roemerberg was heavily damaged during the Second World War and it took a number of years to rebuild it. Reconstruction was finally completed in 1986 and now the Square includes a Kulturschirn, which is a leisure and cultural zone for residents and tourists.
