Museumsufer Frankfurt

Between Eiserner Steg and Friedrensbrücke Frankfurt makes it very easy on museum lovers and idle visitors: 13 of its best museums are all lined up on one single strip.

Alt-Sachsenhausen

South of the Main River, S-Bahn stop: Sachsenhausen The medieval beer gardens and fountain squares in this neighbourhood will transport you back in time. See the “spitting” Frau Rauscher fountain.
