Full description

You can use mobile VR goggles to immerse youself in virtual moving image scenes of German and, in particular, Frankfurt history, and compare the scenes directly with today's cityscape.

During the guided tours, guests will experience a compact journey through time. The tour covers a wide historical range from the Romans at the Limes to the fall of the Berlin Wall. The focus is on the significance of Frankfurt as the cradle of German democracy.

The first National Assembly celebrates its virtual renaissance on Paulsplatz and inside Paulskirche. Guests can use mobile virtual reality glasses to experience excerpts from the highly emotional session of 18 May 1848 as if they had taken part in it themselves. The ceremonial entry and the heated debates of the first hours can be experienced thanks to virtual virtual 360-degree scenes. Virtual reconstructions illustrate the appearance of the Paulskirche and the role played by personalities such as of the National Assembly.

From the Paulskirche, the tour leads to the Römerberg, where a virtual view of the cityscape at the time of the Gründerzeit in the 19th century provides an exciting comparison of the past and present. This station leads the guests through further turning points in German history to the fall of the Wall - the symbolic triumph of democracy, whose roots can be found in Frankfurt in 1848.

Here we take you on an entertaining tour that not only immerses you in Frankfurt's city history, but also shows you a cross-section of German history.

Meeting point

Be on the lookout for a flag bearing the local partners name and logo. The meeting point is a model of the finial directly opposite the main portal of the cathedral. Please be aware that the model of the finial has become a popular meeting point in front of the cathedral and is the starting point for numerous city tours around Cologne Cathedral. However, you should be able to recognize our TimeRide lettering immediately.
