  • Discover cultural treasures: From world-famous museums to small, independent galleries, art and culture pulsate through Frankfurt's veins.

  • Immerse yourself in oases of green: Relax in our parks, our gardens and on our riverbank, which offer a haven of peace and quiet in the midst of the urban dynamic.

  • Culinary diversity: Let yourself be tempted by the finest international cuisine and sample specialities from all over the world.

  • Fascinating architecture: Explore the unique juxtaposition of historical timber-frame architecture and modern skyscrapers.

  • Meet inspiring people: Frankfurt lives through its citizens, who are known to be very diverse, cosmopolitan and hospitable.

From Frankfurt with love – Discover, experience and fall in love with a city that never stands still, but always offers a home.

Frankfurt
celebrates… 

Spring Dippemess 
from 11.04. - 04.05.2025

Frankfurt's Spring Dippemess is a real highlight, marking the start of the festival season. 

Running for around three weeks, it offers visitors from near and far a great opportunity to celebrate the start of spring. The special energy that the spring season brings is also reflected in the festival grounds - it is wilder, louder and more exciting than at other times of the year.
