What to do and see in Innenstadt, Hesse: The Best Things to do

November 12, 2021 Darleen Reid

There’s plenty to see and do in this 2,000-year-old German city. The gothic Saint Bartholomeus Cathedral is a perseverant structure, having been destroyed and rebuilt twice since its 14th century construction. Catch a screening at the German Film Museum, stroll the exhibit halls of one of Frankfurt’s many galleries, or climb to the top of the Main Tower for sweeping 360-degree views of the city.

Cathedral of St. Bartholomew (Dom St. Bartholomaus)

This historic cathedral served for 300 years as the site of coronation for Holy Roman Emperors.

Reviewed By 612billyq - Dublin, Ireland

The St. Bartholomew Cathedral tower is well worth climbing for the views of the old town, the Main river & greater Frankfurt. The viewing platforms are at a height of 66 meters and are reached via a long stone spiral stairs. Hard on the legs as there are no stops along the way. Well worth it though for the amazing 360 degree views from the top. The descent is easier.

Old Opera House (Alte Oper)

Destroyed by Allied bombing in 1944, Frankfurt's beautifully reconstructed opera house was reopened in 1981. It's now a major venue for concerts and operas.

Reviewed By bsandrs - Portsmouth, United Kingdom

The old Opera House was basically destroyed during the war, but has risen Phoenix like with a superb warm and great sounding interior. Very close to our hotel, a free evening for us in the City coincided with an excellent concert by the Frankfurt Radio Orchestra, which was an unexpected musical treat for us. The quality of the orchestra and soloist could not be faulted and we would certainly visit again.

Geldmuseum

The Money Museum is an interactive place for exploring the world of money. How is cash produced? What is book money? How does monetary policy work and what exactly does a central bank do? What role does money play in a globalised world? Striking exhibits, attractive staging and more than 80 media stations with games and interactive information provide answers to these and many more money-related questions. The topics are approached from both a current and a historical perspective. The exhibition is both in German and English.

Must see, i recommend you want through römerberg area and opera house on foot then go to main tower, you will definitely enjoy the view and the history of all the buildings you came across. I got 20% off with Frankfurt card that includes unlimited rides of public transit and trip to/from Airport.

Opera Frankfurt

Reviewed By Moonamuslim

The Alte Oper at Opernplatz in Frankfurt am Main is a concert and event house. All kinds of events take place (see their homepage for actaul events) However, in addition to the events inside, a beautiful building from the outside. Many nice little cafes on the Opera Square invite you for coffee or tea. Easy to go there, in the middle of the city. Just enjoy the sun in summer and have a drink. The building also looks very beautiful in the evening when it is illuminated. Definitely one of the few buildings in Frankfurt that is definitely worth it! The European Central Bank is very close, and the banks of the Main are also not far away

In my short trip to Germany i had the ocasion to visit Frankfurt for a few hours. The main element that catched my eye was the contrast between the traditional old buildings and the breath taking sky scrapers. I had a really great time walking through their historycal square and also observing their culture.
