What is the history of Römerstadt?
Nida came first. Under the Roman Empire the settlement served as capital of the Civitas Taunensium, and written sources from Roman times preserve its name, which probably derives from that of the adjacent river Nidda. The town stood where the northwestern suburbs of Frankfurt am Main now spread, around Frankfurt-Heddernheim in Germany.
