It was held on Sunday 3 March 1957 in Frankfurt-am-Main, West Germany. It was won by the Netherlands with "Net als toen", performed by Corry Brokken.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.eurovision.tv/page/history/by-year/contest?event=274#About the show )〕 Like the first 1956 edition, this one was still mainly a radio programme, but there was a noticeable increase in the number of people with televisions. For some time, a rumour had existed that the privilege of hosting the 1957 contest was given to Germany because they had come in second place in 1956 with "Im Wartesaal zum großen Glück" by Walter Andreas Schwarz. In fact, not only were the official 1956 scores withheld, but the rule stating that the winning nation hosts the next year's Eurovision Song Contest had not yet been conceived. It was planned at the time that each participating country would take it in turns to host the event. However, as more countries wished to participate, this became impractical.〔 == Location == The contest took place in Frankfurt, at the time one of the largest cities in West Germany. The host venue was the Großer Sendesaal des hessischen Rundfunks, a building, music hall and former television studio based in Frankfurt am Main. It was the former headquarters for the Hessischer Rundfunk broadcast. Today it is used as a music hall.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.film-commission-hessen.de/WebObjects/LH.woa/query/1082480%3Bloc%3Bdetails%3Bde%3Bno=1236 )〕 After being devastated in the Second World War during the early 1940s, Frankfurt rebuilt itself well into the 1950s into one of Europe's most prominent financial centres. With investments coming in from both national and international financial institutions, 1957, the year of the contest, already saw the first of Frankfurt's high-rise business buildings.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.messefrankfurt.com/frankfurt/en/messe/messe_leitbild/geschichte/frankfurter_prinzip.html )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.frankfurt-tourismus.de/cms/tourismussuite/en/tourist_information_frankfurt/frankfurt_city_history.html )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Eurovision Song Contest 1957」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
