2. Frankfurt am Main is the second largest urban area in Germany, so there's going to be a lot you can go see. My favourite place I visited in Frankfurt when I went was the Römer, the city's town hall. When you think of traditional German architecture, like the stuff out of Grimm's Fairy Tales, this building fits that description. It's really beautiful. I would make this the top of your list of places to visit in Frankfurt. There's other stuff to see...Saint Bartholomew's Cathedral, Saint Paul's Church, and the Opera House. You can also experience modern Europe and go see the European Central Bank. This is the financial heart of the European Union. There's a ton of museums. My favourite was the Städel. They have a really nice collection, especially of the Northern Renaissence and Baroque masters. In regards to georgiafudge's post, there isn't much associated with Anne Frank in Frankurt. You can see the apartment block where she grew up, but there's nothing on parr with the museum in Amsterdam where she hid from the Nazis. I hope this helps. Enjoy Frankfurt! It's a really nice city.
