Hayn Castle Ruins (Dreieichenhain)

Highlight • Castle

The keep (round tower) was built around 1180 as part of the enlargement of the castle complex under the Lords of Hagen-Münzenberg.
With its original height of about 30 m and a diameter of 13 m, it is one of the largest mountain tombs that were built in Germany. In the years 1792/93 it was removed to its current height of 14 m. The stones were used to build roads and houses.
The keep served not only as a status symbol, but above all to protect the castle and as a refuge for the residents of the city as well as a magazine, repository and dungeon.
Today the former basement of the round tower serves as a registry office, in whose romantic ambience many couples say yes.

Schwanheimer Dune Boardwalk

Highlight • Natural Monument

This inland dune can be found in the west of Frankfurt-Schwanheim. The dune has been a nature reserve since 1984 and is a popular recreational area for the people of Frankfurt. Dunes like this with valuable fauna and flora are rare inland and are therefore a special feature. There are two paths through the area, one of which is a boardwalk.

View of the Frankfurt skyline at the German Film Museum

Highlight • Viewpoint

The Mainufer with its promenade, the green areas and its distinctive bridges is one of the big attractions of the city. Overlooking the impressive skyline, the residents of Frankfurt and their guests can walk for miles along the shore, go jogging or cycling. From here also the excursion boats start along the Main. Art lovers will also appreciate the numerous museums along the banks of the River Main, which is one of Europe's most important museum locations.
