Years: 1656 - 1656

Aachen had started to lose its power and influence from the early 16th century,

First the coronations of emperors were moved from Aachen to Frankfurt.

This had been followed by the religious wars, and the great fire of 1656.

After the destruction of most of the city in 1656, the rebuilding is mostly in the Baroque style.
