Those who view the finance metropolis of Frankfurt am Main exclusively as a business location are missing out on the many places to see far away from the stock exchange and the banks.

An experience that's not just for kids: This park, which was laid out in 1931 by the forestry office, offers not only a paddling pool for the kids to cool off in, but also a 43-metre-high tower named in honor of Goethe, which in fine weather offers sensational views of the Frankfurt skyline, the GreenBelt and the complete Rhein/Main area. Another one of the park's highlights is its maze. The park is located just off the Sachsenhäuser Landwehrweg.
Located right in the heart of this city on the River Main, there’s a green idyll for the entire family between the high-rise buildings.
