A photograph from around 1920 shows the view from Neue Kräme towards the Römerberg in Frankfurt. On the right stands the Salzhaus, a Renaissance timber-framed house covered in carvings and painted scenes, with Haus Frauenstein and the three stepped gables of the Römer, the city hall, visible beyond.
