A Must-Visit in Frankfurt | Jewish Alley Museum 🏛️

📜The Jewish Alley in Frankfurt was established in 1460 and is said to be the oldest Jewish ghetto in all of Europe. Before 1811, Jews were only allowed to live in the Jewish Alley. The status of Jews in Europe has always been low, and conflicts have always existed; World War II was more like an extreme outbreak. 📜The Rothschild family settled in the Jewish Alley of Frankfurt, Germany, from the 16th century. The surname Rothschild was chosen quite casually because there was a red shield sign on their house door, and the family used it as their surname. The Rothschild family remained obscure for more than two centuries here until they began to rise in the 18th century. The founder of the family was Mayer Rothschild, and he and his five sons successively opened banks in Frankfurt, London, Paris, Vienna, and Naples, establishing a vast family financial empire. By the 19th century, Rothschild had become a synonym for wealth. 📜Overall, spending a day visiting the two exhibition halls is quite an interesting experience. Against the backdrop of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, learning about the history of the Jewish people is also timely. Friends coming to Frankfurt for a visit might consider exploring this place. #WeekendGetaways #EuropeanLife #GermanLife #Frankfurt #RothschildFamily #Jewish #WorthVisitingMuseum #History #Mansion
