"On Sunday, 24th May, 1863, my uncle, Professor Lidenbrock, hurried back to his little house, number 19 in the Königstrasse, one of the oldest streets in the Old Quarter of Hamburg.
Our servant, Marthe, must have thought she was very late, for dinner was hardly beginning to sizzle on the kitchen stove."
