Things to do in Frankfurt, Hesse: The Best Specialty Museums
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.

Spent a good 2-3 hours at this great museum. Especially loved the interactivity and the brilliant montages of films covering aspects of sound, lighting and music etc. Would definitely recommend to any film buffs or fans of german/early cinema.

Culture pure in Frankfurt. Dozens of museums open their doors, shows, workshops, art, music speciality handwork is on view all along the river on both banks. A yearly extravaganza ending in a massive firework show. Don't miss the dragon boat racing and, of course, plenty to eat and drink, this is, after all, in Germany.For a non-mainstream music entertainment I always go to the RadioX stage (below the Holbein foot bridge), always something new and interesting to hear.

Although I thought I had seen all the icons in the world, this collection proved me wrong. There are many other interesting icons (mostly Russian and Ethiopian) that I've not seen before. It may be a small collection but it's a great collection. I saw a couple that just rushed through the collection, mostly chatting with each other rather than appreciating the art. A few icons are smudged. Not sure if that was deliberate or happened over time but most are just beautiful. The only drawback is that all the descriptions are in German unless you can deduce from the titles who the icons are depicting. However, they have a booklet at the reception in English if you wish to return to it to find out.

The German Architecture Museum (Deutsches Architekturmuseum) (DAM) is located on the Museumsufer in Frankfurt. It is housed in an 18th-century building, though only the outside wall were preserved and the interior has been re-designed by Oswald Mathias Ungers in 1984. It is like a set of "elemental Platonic buildings within elemental Platonic buildings". The permanent exhibition is entitled "From Ancient Huts to Skyscrapers" and it is about the history of architectural development in Germany. During the year the DAM organises several temporary exhibitions, as well as conferences, symposia and lectures. It has a collection of ca. 180,000 architectural drawings and 600 models, including works by modern and contemporary classics like Erich Mendelsohn, Mies van der Rohe, Archigram and Frank O. Gehry. It also includes a reference library with approximately 25,000 books and magazines.
