View of the Frankfurt skyline at the German Film Museum

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mainufer with its promenade, the green areas and its distinctive bridges is one of the big attractions of the city. Overlooking the impressive skyline, the residents of Frankfurt and their guests can walk for miles along the shore, go jogging or cycling. From here also the excursion boats start along the Main. Art lovers will also appreciate the numerous museums along the banks of the River Main, which is one of Europe's most important museum locations.

View of the Frankfurt skyline from the Main riverbank

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Even if everything is over to museums at the moment, just walking through the Städle Museum, it is quite large and behind the building. Above all, there is almost no one there when everything else is full on the Main. You have a lot of space. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻For yourself to do sports

Highlight (Segment) • Viewpoint

Here, near the Frankfurt University Hospital, you can relax down on the banks of the Main. It is much quieter than near the “Eiserner Steg”.
