One of the absolute highlights to hit the Main metropolis this year is the new Botticelli exhibition, which will be opening at the renowned Städel Museum this coming November. But there are always plenty of other exhibitions, festivals, live performances and fairs taking place, all of which make Frankfurt well worth a visit, whether in spring, summer, fall or winter.
We hope the enclosed newsletter will help make your sojourn in Frankfurt am Main even more entertaining.
I wish you enjoyable reading and a lovely stay in our fabulous city.

Our special offers for youEvery autumn, Frankfurt am Main honours one of its most significant trade shows – the Frankfurt Book Fair. During this time, the city is transformed into a literary festival of special magnificence, featuring readings, lectures, podium discussions, forums and other cultural offerings with artists and authors from all across the globe. The Frankfurt Book Fair pays homage not only to the world of literature, but also to the literary scene of the Main metropolis, which to this day remains alive and well. The ideal beauty of his mythological figures
and the elegant grace of his Virgin Mary depictions have made the works
of Sandro Botticelli the epitome of Florentine painting in the Golden
Age of the Medici Family. Anyone interested in combining the beauty of
Renaissance art with the appeal of Frankfurt am Main should take
advantage of this great opportunity and book a Botticelli Weekend
for two while the time is ripe. |

To commemorate his 200th birthday, the Frankfurt Tourist+Congress Board is happy to present a brand-new city tour, entitled “Heinrich Hoffmann and the Literary Figures of Frankfurt’s West End”. This picturesque city district, which remained largely untouched during the air raids of World War II, is known to have been home to countless authors and artists over the past centuries, including Heinrich Hoffmann, the popular writer of children’s books. |
