About Frankfurt
Frankfurt is a dynamic German city of contrasts, famous for its striking financial skyline as well as its rich historic charm. Situated along the River Main, the city features a reconstructed Altstadt with half-timbered buildings alongside major cultural highlights like the Museumsufer art embankment. Visitors can admire masterworks at the Städel Museum, take in sweeping city views from the 200-meter Main Tower, or cross the river to the Sachsenhausen neighbourhood to sample traditional apfelwein in cozy taverns. Compact and easy to navigate on foot, the city also hosts Goethe's historic home and major transport links including Germany's busiest airport.
When to go
Frankfurt is at its best for a practical business trip with a smart city break around it.
The optimal time to visit Frankfurt is from April through September, when the city enjoys mild temperatures, sunny days, and lush greenery. Spring features low rainfall alongside traditional events like the Spring Dippemess fair, while summer hosts lively riverside gatherings and the Museumsuferfest in late August. Early autumn is popular for golden foliage, apple wine harvests, and local beer festivals, though visitors should expect high hotel demand during the Frankfurt Book Fair in mid-October. Winter brings chilly temperatures and rain, but draws visitors from late November through December to iconic Christmas markets in the historic Römerberg square.
