Goethe University



Today was such a perfect weather for a Sunday walk through Goethe University in Frankfurt. Funny how the feeling you get from a university ground is pretty much the same all over the world - students playing some kind of casual ball game on the grass.

The building construction was extremely impressive. It was the former HQ for the Allies after WWII where the Marshall Plan was implemented for Europe (sort of like the Dai-ichi Life Insurance building in Tokyo). The building was also where Nazi's lethal gas was created by IG Farben, the chemical company that originally built the whole ground. Some interesting reading here.
