Why is Frankfurt known for its skyline?

Frankfurt is the only city in Europe with a skyline dominated by very tall high-rises. Nearly 40 buildings in a confined area reach over 100 metres in height, including 19 of Germany's 20 tallest skyscrapers.

What is the Main Tower?

The Main Tower was completed in 1999 and stands 200 metres high with 55 storeys. The public observation deck at 187 metres offers an unforgettable panorama.

What is the Museumsufer?

The Museumsufer is home to 26 museums along the Main — one of Germany's most diverse museum landscapes. With the MuseumsuferTicket at £21, you have access for two days.

The Römer is the historic town hall and a symbol of Frankfurt's history. It stands in the heart of the reconstructed old town.

Which new high-rises are being completed in 2025?

Five striking high-rise projects will be finished in 2025, including the towers of 'Four Frankfurt'. Tower 1 will be 233 metres tall, making it the city's third-highest building.

What is the Eiserner Steg?

The Eiserner Steg is a historic pedestrian bridge across the Main and one of the best places to photograph the Frankfurt skyline.

What can you see in the Kaiserdom?

Kaiserdom St. Bartholomäus has a tower 96 metres high. After climbing 300 steps, you reach the platform at 66 metres with views over the old town.

Does Frankfurt have its own vineyard?

Yes! On the Lohrberg, the 185-metre-high 'local mountain', there is a vineyard. This makes Frankfurt one of the few major cities with its own wine production.

Why is Frankfurt also called 'Mainhattan'?

The nickname 'Mainhattan' emerged in the 1970s, combining the Main river with Manhattan. Since the 1980s, the skyline has become the city's trademark.

How important is Frankfurt as a financial centre?

Frankfurt is one of the world's leading financial markets. The city is home to the European Central Bank and numerous banks.
