Mayor Feldmann: 'A return to the origins of the city of Frankfurt'
(pia) "The return of Emperor Charlemagne to the Old Bridge is a return to the origins of our city," said Mayor Peter Feldmann during a visit to the depot of the Historical Museum. "With this, a piece of Frankfurt's identity will return to its place on October 1."
Together with Christoph Mäckler and Björn Wissenbach from the New Bridge Building Association, Feldmann had presented the copy, which has since arrived in Frankfurt and was made from old historical photos. The original has its place in the Historical Museum. Due to environmental and weather influences, a 110,000 euro copy will be placed at the original location on the Old Bridge.
The Lord Mayor praised the great civic commitment of the New Bridge Building Association. He was happy to help raise money for it. Feldmann emphasized: "I consider it a very important project, because according to legend, Charlemagne gave our city its name with his crossing of the Main through the Frankenfurt."
"It is a great concern of the Brückenbauverein to promote the building culture of the city of Frankfurt and to bring history back to life. More projects will follow," Christoph Mäckler emphasized.
