Frankfurt – History and Modernity

Frankfurt - the city of skyscrapers and ancient churches, the financial capital of Europe, is one of the ten "Alpha cities" of the world. Here is the third largest airport in Europe. But Frankfurt has another side.
In the heart of the diverse city there is no rush and bustle, there is silence and culture. Not many cities have as many museums as Frankfurt. The famous museum embankment with 19 museums offers entertainment for every taste: from folk artisans to masterpieces of painting, from the history of cinema to ancient plastic.

Frankfurt is a city where German history was forged.

In 1152, Frederick Barbarossa, Holy German Emperor, admired the importance of Frankfurt. And Charles IV, the German emperor, in his "Golden Bull" enshrined in the city imperial right. On the tour you will learn what events developed and took place on its streets and squares of the city.
