Paulskirche

De Paulskirche werd niet bekend als een kerk, maar als een ontmoetingsplaats. Het werd gebouwd ter vervanging van de Barfüßerkirche (Kerk van de Blootvoetigen) en opende haar deuren in 1833. Het eerste vrije gekozen Duitse parlement zetelde hier in 1848; er vonden hier 99 ontmoetingen plaats en er kwamen 59 artikelen voorbij die nog steeds deel uitmaken van de huidige Duitse grondwet. De kerk werd in een lucht-inval in 1944 vernietigd en werd in 1947/48 herbouwd als een gedenkteken aan de verschrikkingen van de oorlog. De eenvoudige hal is nu een locatie voor belangrijke evenementen zoals de jaarlijkse ceremonie ter ere van de Duitse Vredesprijs en de awards van de Goethepreis van de stad Frankfurt.

Paulsplatz 11, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60311
Römer

Frankfurt Town Hall, as it stands today, is made up of a melee of different buildings. The first buildings to be constructed here were the Zum Römer House and the next-door guest-house, Goldener Schwan in 1405. At the beginning of the 20th Century, two building complexes (north and south) were erected next to Paulsplatz and were joined by a bridge. Designed in a Renaissance and Baroque architectural style, these buildings fit in well with the earlier buildings. They are decorated with reliefs depicting local events, such as the harvesting of cider apples. One particular draw is the exquisitely decorated Kaisersaal (Emperor's Hall) in the Rathaus (city hall). The Rathaus is the seat of the Mayor of Frankfurt.

Old St Nicholas Church

The Alte Nikolaikirche (Old Nikolai Church) can be found in the southern section of Frankfurt's Römerberg for centuries. Initially designed as a chapel for the neighboring Stauferpfalz Palace, the church was later used for mass and prayer by the town council. In the 15th Century, the building underwent changes and the watchtower was made higher to enable watchmen to signal to ships on the river from the top of the tower. Members of the council could also watch the festivities on the Römerberg from the extended rooftop. A hundred years later, this place of worship was turned into a warehouse and silo. Today, the facade of the late Gothic, doubled-naved church is painted in its original colors of white and red.

Liebfrauenkirche

In the 14th Century, a rich Frankfurt patrician erected a chapel next to the city walls. The chapel was later extended into a Gothic hall with a bell tower called Liebfrauenkirche. During the 18th Century, the inside of the church received ornate rococo fittings, and during the 19th Century, the Three Kings portal was given a vestibule. After severe damage in the War, the whole place was rebuilt in 1954. A wooden roof has now replaced the Gothic original, and from the original interior, only the figures on the altar remain.

Liebfrauenstraße 4, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60313
Karmeliterkloster

Built between 1460 and 1520, this historic monastery is worth a visit for its architecture alone. Yet there is much more to see than just thick brick walls. The refectory is considered to be one of the most beautiful Renaissance-period buildings in the city, and Joerg Ratgeb's frescos in the hallway rank among the most important wall-paintings in the whole of Europe. After the last monks (of the Karmeliter Order) left the monastery in 1803, it was turned into a military barracks. Nowadays, Karmeliterkloster is home to the Museum of Early History, the Institute of Urban History and a public art gallery.

Münzgasse 9, Institut für Stadtgeschichte, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60311
Leinwandhaus

In de Middeleeuwen was dit gotische bouwwerk met zeer steil dak het centrum van de kledinghandel in Frankfurt. Hier werd de kleding opgeslagen, gewogen en gemeten. Op de buitenmuur kunt u nog steeds de maatcilinder zien die gebruikt werd in die tijd, ook wel bekend als de Frankfurter Elle. Het twee-verdiepingen-tellende huis is gebouwd tegen het einde van de 14e eeuw, waarschijnlijk door de bekende architect Madern Gerthener. Na de vernietiging tijdens de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd het herbouwd in 1980 en tegenwoordig herbergt het gebouw een kunstgalerie (de Kommunale Galerie) die tentoonstellingen van hedendaagse kunstenaars afwisselend vertoont.

Weckmarkt 17, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60311
Dompfarramt

Deze kathedraal is oorspronkelijk gebouwd als parochiekerk in 1235, maar dankzij een bevelschrift in 1356 werd besloten dat alle Duitse keizers hier gekozen moesten worden, waardoor de kerk in status veranderde naar kathedraal. Door de jaren heen is de kathedraal meerdere keren herbouwd: na de verwoestende brand van 1867 en na de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De enige onderdelen van het originele interieur die overleefden zijn de fries van St. Bartholemew, het koorgestoelte en het Maria-Schlaf altaar. De toren bevat een meesterwerk van de vroege renaissance periode: een sculptuur van Hans Backoffen dat een scène uit de kruisiging afbeeldt. Het museum huist een aantal waardevolle stukken van de kathedraal.

Domplatz 1, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60311
Old Jewish Cemetery

Spanning across 2.93 acres (1.19 hectares), the Old Jewish Cemetery has tombstones dating back to the 13th-century. It was last used in 1828 and is the second oldest of its kind in Germany. It is situated near the Jewish Museum and had more than 4,000 of its graves destroyed during Hitler's era, yet has many that are still intact. The cemetery is now part of a memorial which contains the names of 11,134 Frankfurt Jews who were murdered by the Nazis.

Battonnstraße, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60311
Schaumainkai

Frankfurt's Schaumainkai is a centrally located street in the city and runs along the south side of the Main. It is home to a number of museums including the Städel Museum which houses an impressive collection of modern and contemporary art. It is also the site of the Museum Embankment Festival which happens every year around August. A flea market also gathers on this very street. You will find all the vintage, arty and many more collectibles you can explore, that you would wish to own. Call ahead for more details.

Schaumainkai 41, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60596
Alte Oper

The Alte Oper or the Old Opera House still looks as magnificent and imposing as it did when it was opened by Kaiser Wilhelm I in 1880. The building was financed by affluent Frankfurt citizens and was designed in an Italian Renaissance style by Richard Lucae. Destroyed in a 1944 air raid, it was rebuilt later and renamed the 'Old Opera Concert and Conference Center'. The main auditorium, the Grosser Saal with seating for about 2500 people, is the central part of the building and is used for concerts and musical extravaganzas. Smaller rooms can be hired for functions, conferences, corporate events, receptions, product launches and so on. Visitors can obtain refreshments in the café, the restaurant or the bistro.

Grüneburg Park

Situated in the Westend precinct of Frankfurt, the Grüneburgpark is one of the largest and most loved parks in Frankfurt. The old masters like Wolfgang Goethe would seek solace in this lush greenery and seek inspiration here. Grüneburg which literally means Green Castle, was once the site of a castle in the 14th century but as time passed, it went on to become a 29 hectare green space for the public. One of the focal points of the park is the Korean Garden, which is segregated into four areas symbolizing the four seasons. Because of the park's proximity to the business district and educational institutions, a lot of students and businessmen come here to unwind after work.

August-Siebert-Strasse, Frankfurt, Duitsland, 60323
Günthersburgpark

Situated at the edge of Bornheim, this popular park is a summertime favorite with Frankfurt locals and tourists alike. The park was formerly an estate belonging to the Rotschild family, and while it it now features newer elements like a waterslide, a playground and a climbing tower, the charm of its days past still lingers.
