The Westend Synagogue was built from 1908 to 1910 in the Art Nouveau style. It was the only one of the four former large synagogues to survive the November 1938 pogroms and World War II bombings. In 1950, the synagogue was reopened after a temporary renovation and then faithfully restored from 1989 to 1994.
St. Katharinen Church is a Protestant church in Frankfurt am Main. The Baroque building was built from 1678 to 1681 and rebuilt between 1950 and 1954 after being destroyed during the Second World War.
The 1929 consecrated church Frauenfrieden in Frankfurt/Main was financed by women for the purpose of remembering the victims of the Great War and as a prayer for peace. In 1916, the Catholic women's rights activist, politician and chairperson of the Catholic German Women's Association Hedwig Dransfeld (1871-1925) formulated the idea of having a church commemorating the fallen of the war financed exclusively by women. The church was planned by architect Hans Herkommer. In 2020 the church was restored and the liturgical interior redesigned by the artist Tobias Kammerer.
