About Frankfurt

Why Visit Frankfurt, Germany

Situated on the banks of the River Main, Frankfurt is the major financial hub of Germany and Europe, housing the headquarters of more than 300 banks, including the European Central Bank.

It's no surprise that every fifth citizen of Frankfurt is involved in the financial sphere.

Moreover, Frankfurt is the fifth largest city in the country, boasting mind-blowing diversity coupled with the harmonious coexistence of metropolis bustle and traditional culture.

The main landmark of Frankfurt that should definitely be listed in your Germany vacation plan is its skyscrapers. Can you imagine that Frankfurt alone has more skyscrapers than the rest of Germany combined?

Thirteen buildings in the city exceed a height of 150 meters (493 ft), making Frankfurt the third city in Europe in terms of the number of skyscrapers, after the European tall-building leaders, London and Paris.

However, vibrant Frankfurt is obviously famous not only for its high buildings.

This German city is a large cultural and scientific center, boasting numerous museums, two botanical gardens, and one of the most renowned universities in Germany and the world, Goethe University.

The major recreation place worth visiting during your Frankfurt tour is its Museumsufer, set along the banks of the River Main and home to the historic art museum Städel. To tell the truth, Frankfurt experienced serious damage during World War II and hasn't managed to keep many historic highlights.

If you seek a touch of the Middle Ages, you can add the iconic 15th-century town hall Römer to your Frankfurt travel itinerary, take a stroll along the Old Town Römerberg, and visit the old Goethe House.
