Post-war reconstruction of Frankfurt

The post-war reconstruction of Frankfurt in Germany took place broadly between 1945 and the 1960s, during which time the city of Frankfurt removed the rubble created by Allied raids and the subsequent battle by Allied ground forces to take the city and rebuilt the damaged parts of area. To remove and recycle the rubble the city authorities in the autumn of 1945 created in partnership with the Metallgesellschaft industrial group and the Philipp Holzmann and Wayss & Freytag construction companies established the Trümmerverwertungsgesellschaft (TVG).
