Our tour continues to the Solmsparkwhich seamlessly adjoins Brentano Park and is also crossed by the River Nidda. There we come across a model castle surrounded by a small wall and benches. An information board reveals that it is a model of Rödelheim Castle, which existed until 1944 and whose walls were uncovered a few years ago.

Along the densely overgrown Nidda, we finally cross the Mühlgraben. This picturesque spot, where the stream flows into the Nidda, attracts visitors to linger on the banks or enjoy the view of the "Blue footbridge"a bridge that connects the northern and southern sides of Rödelheim and has inspired many festivals.

Now it's time for an ice cream break! We leave the green bank via the Blue Footbridge and head towards the actual town centre. Near the railway station, we find the "Eis Café Gelateria", where we treat ourselves to a generous portion of banana ice cream. With a small but excellent selection and friendly service, the ice cream parlour offers a perfect experience.

Before we make our way back to Frankfurt, we visit the neo-Gothic St Anthony's Church, a monument both inside and out, and admire some of Rödelheim's traditional half-timbered houses.
