Guided Story

Imagine it's 1733. You're standing before a building that has witnessed nearly three centuries of history and governance in Hanau. Look up at the intricate Baroque façade, designed by Christian Ludwig Hermann. Behind these walls, decisions that shaped the city’s history were made. Turn slightly to the south, and you'll see the Brothers Grimm Monument. The famous storytellers are almost at home here.
