Römerberg
Frankfurt's beautifully restored medieval old town square is filled with half-timbered houses that look like they came straight out of a storybook.
Frankfurt is a city of surprising contrasts, where gleaming glass skyscrapers tower over cobblestoned medieval squares. Step into Römerberg and you will feel like you have walked straight into a fairytale, surrounded by rows of beautifully painted half-timbered houses. Not far away, a magnificent red sandstone cathedral rises above the rooftops, carrying centuries of history within its walls. Frankfurt hums with energy and ambition, drawing visitors and workers from all over the world to its busy streets and buzzing riverside promenades.
The city also has a deep love for art and culture. World-class paintings by some of history’s greatest artists fill the Städel Museum, while the Palmengarten lets you wander through lush tropical greenery without ever leaving the city. Frankfurt is especially proud of one of its most famous sons, a celebrated writer whose birthplace has been carefully preserved so visitors can peek into his childhood world. This is a city that honors its past while racing boldly toward the future.
