What's fun to do in Frankfurt?

So, for car related things to do there isn't much apart from the Klassikstadt a few minutes out of town. It's basically a converted old factory offering space for people to park their (expensive) classics and different classic car workshops and a McLaren dealer.

For other things to do you can visit the small old town area and go down to the river which is quite nice on a sunny day.
The 200m high observation deck on Maintower is quite impressive and gives you a good overview over the rather small city.

Other than that there's not terribly much to do apart from the usual museums that are better and bigger in London anyways. If you're into planes the airport is quite busy with all sizes of aircraft and they have a terrace for observation. It's only a 10 minute train ride from the centre.

This only really fills up a day so if you have several to spend you could go and visit the Rhine valley which is only about an hour away and quite scenic/typically German.


If you tell me what you're interested in I can have another think. I can also recommend places for food if you want.

I can't comment on Frankfurt, but if you were prepared to travel, I would suggest going to Munich: the Deutsches Museum is fabulous - look it up. The resturants and cafes are great and if you are into food and drink, the open air food markets are well worth visiting

mikehamid had hit the nail on the head! It's alright, and that's about it.

I found Stuttgart to be the same, but I'll report on that in another post .

I don't think the Nurburgring is far from there however .

Intend to try the apfelwein.
