Frankfurt is also a cultural metropolis

Skyline Frankfurt am Main

Frankfurt is a financial metropolis, but also a cultural metropolis. The city is very much in the tradition of its world-famous son, Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, who was born here in 1782.

The most important cultural themes here in Frankfurt am Main are

Literature – you walk in Goethe’s footsteps. Every year, the International Book Fair brings the leading authors and publishers to our city. Many literary institutions are based in Frankfurt: The German National Library, the Literaturhaus Frankfurt, the Romanfabrik and the Goethehaus.

Architecture – the modern high-rise architecture is truly unique in Germany. And the German Architecture Museum is definitely worth a visit.

Art – Städel, the Liebighaus, the Schirn Kunsthalle and numerous galleries and exhibitions create a rich offering for art lovers from all over the world. Incidentally, more than 400 works of art enrich the public space. That is simply ‘instagrammable’,

Science – Frankfurt’s scientific tradition dates back to before the university was founded in 1914. The Johann Wolfgang Goethe University is one of the largest in Germany and student life enriches many parts of the city.

Of course, food and drink are also part of the cultural experience. There aren’t many cities in Germany that cultivate their genuine specialities with passion (apple wine, green sauce, etc.) on the one hand and are home to top restaurants with cuisines from all over the world on the other. to our restaurant tips
