Walking through Helenopolis, today known as Frankfurt am Main

The tour kicks off at the Old Opera House, a symbol of Frankfurt's rich history and architectural elegance, built in neo-renaissance style in 1869. This landmark recounts the city's dramatic historical shifts, including its annexation by Prussia and the ensuing financial restitution that funded the opera house's construction. The first performance, Mozart's "Don Giovanni", was staged here in 1880. Next, you'll explore the city's luxury fashion district, reminiscent of haute couture's golden days. Baron Amschel Mayer von Rothschild guides you through the era surrounding WWII. You'll then visually experience Frankfurt's local flavour of apple wine, before crossing the Peace Bridge over the Main river to dive into the city’s rich art and sculptural history. The tour proceeds to the Iron Bridge, offering a stunning view of Frankfurt's heart, where you can attach a 'love lock' for eternal romance. Finally, the tour concludes at the Imperial Cathedral, a historic site of emperors' elections and crownings since 852.
