The 10 Best Art Museums in Frankfurt, Hesse

December 3, 2021 Flossie Demartino

There’s plenty to see and do in this 2,000-year-old German city. The gothic Saint Bartholomeus Cathedral is a perseverant structure, having been destroyed and rebuilt twice since its 14th century construction. Catch a screening at the German Film Museum, stroll the exhibit halls of one of Frankfurt’s many galleries, or climb to the top of the Main Tower for sweeping 360-degree views of the city.

Liebieghaus

Housed in a castle-like structure, this art museum holds an impressive collection of classical, Renaissance and Baroque sculptures. Die Liebieghaus Skulpturensammlung bleibt vom 16. Marz bis einschließlich 10. April geschlossen. Die Liebieghaus Skulpturensammlung folgt damit der behordlichen Vorsorgemaßnahme der Stadt Frankfurt im Zuge der Verbreitung des Coronavirus (Covid-19).

This is a singularly attractive museum in rather fantastical building set in a garden close to the banks of the Main. The place is an oasis and the museum collection is of a very high quality. There is a beautiful classical statue of Athena and a number of high quality Roman heads plus a couple of fine Egyptian burial portraits. The medieval collection contains sculpture in both stone and wood, including polychrome altarpieces. Highlights include heads of the four doctors of the Church, each intensely life-like, several beautiful Virgina and Child images, a St Anne with Mary and Jesus, two romanseque Virgins and a romanesque crucifix.

Goethe Museum is a wonderful museum which takes you back in time for sure. Situated in downtown Frankfurt it’s a great place to go for a feel of old Germany. Its definitely worth a visit. You cannot help but admire the house which is gorgeous in itself and certainly gives you the feel of how life was in the yesteryear. You also get to see the original kitchen & bathroom along with the old heating system. All in all an amazing time spent out here.

Magnetic North and Gilbert & George are the current exhibitions at Schirn...while the first was nice and and very aesthetically “correct” (a little too much for my taste), the second was *SO* incorrect (politically, aesthetically, etc.)...it was just f-awesome. And the “dot on the i” was the floor walls in the inner building “cilinder” displaying the best collection of phrases using the f-word I have ever seen. Made my day...
