Experience the best of Frankfurt
Frankfurt is a river city in Hesse, a financial centre of glass towers beside a rebuilt old town, with museums along the Main and apple-wine taverns.

Frankfurt am Main stands on the river Main, and its cluster of skyscrapers, nicknamed Mainhattan, gives it a skyline unusual for Germany. The old town square, the Römerberg, with its half-timbered houses and the stepped-gable Römer town hall, was reconstructed after the bombing of 1944. The Kaiserdom, a red sandstone cathedral, was the coronation church of Holy Roman emperors, and the Paulskirche saw Germany's first freely elected parliament meet in 1848.
The Museumsufer, along the south bank of the Main, lines up more than a dozen museums, among them the Städel with its European paintings, and Goethe, born in the city in 1749, is remembered in his birthplace. The Palmengarten is a botanic garden with greenhouses, and the Main Tower has a viewing platform over the skyline. Across the river, Sachsenhausen is full of taverns. The Taunus hills and the Rheingau vineyards are close.
Apfelwein, a tart cider known locally as Ebbelwoi, is the drink of the city, poured from stone jugs in the taverns of Sachsenhausen and served with Handkäse, a sour cheese, and sausages. Grüne Soße, a cold green herb sauce served with eggs and potatoes, is another local dish. The Book Fair each October draws the world's publishers, and Christmas markets fill the Römerberg.
