About "Decay and destruction"

by Thomas Riess

About the artwork

After the annexation of the Free City of Frankfurt by the Kingdom of Prussia in 1866, the medieval Clesernhof, a complex of buildings at the Römer that no longer exists, served as the first police headquarters. In 1886, a new police headquarters was built on the former Klapperfeld on the Neue Zeil, whose police custody was in operation until 2002. Due to the increasing lack of space on the Zeil, the "New Royal Police Headquarters at the Hohenzollernhof" was moved to the former Hohenzollernplatz (today's Friedrich-Ebert-Anlage) in 1914. It was built in historicist style in a mixture of neo-baroque and neo-classicism. The old police headquarters on Friedrich-Ebert-Anlage in Frankfurt has been empty for 20 years. After the police moved to the north of the city, the building was used for parties, exhibitions and various projects for years. When this too came to an end, nature reclaimed the interior of the former police headquarters more and more - and since then has been attracting "urban explorers" to the walls.
