Frankfurt am Main
 Das Stammhaus der Rothschild
 The Ancestral Home of the Rothschilds
 Judengasse


The building was actually two houses under one roof, the "House of the Red Shield" (Rothen Schild) on the left, and the "House of the Schiff" on the right, with a common ground floor, but completely divided in the upper stories, three windows wide.  By 1886, when the underlying facade was exposed during the creation of the new Boernestrasse, it was one of the few remaining examples of the narrow half-timbered building of the old "Judengasse."  The building dated to the 17th Century.  Mayer Amschel, the patriarch, father of the famous "Five Frankfurters" was born in the House of the Red Shield in 1743. He bought the house in 1780.

I wonder why it is that Peter Schiff keeps smiling these days
