Doppelhelix Sculpture at Kulturgleis

Highlight • Monument

When the rails of the old port railway were dismantled in 2008, students of the Hochschule für Gestaltung (University of Design) campaigned for the preservation of a section about 300 meters long at Schlossstrasse. And they won the city of Offenbach for the idea: The cultural track on the banks of the Main - a place where people meet, where people come into conversation. A place of inspiration. At the heart of this idea is an old freight car - scene of cultural events and political discussions, which since 2008 take place there several times a week under the direction of HfG students.
Since 2010, the double helix of graduate designer Frank Flaskämper marks the other end of the cultural track. Flaskämper is a graduate of the product design department of the HfG. His large sculpture of rails and sleepers recalls the shape of the human genome.

Kulturwagon at Isenburg Castle

Highlight • Structure

The "Waggon am Kulturgleis" (often referred to as the "Kulturwaggon") in Offenbach am Main reopened in March 2026 at its original location on the banks of the Main River.

After a temporary closure and events held in "exile" due to planned dike renovations, the venue resumed operations at its familiar location for a "bonus season" from March until the end of June 2026, as the construction work is expected to be delayed.

Important Information

Address: Mainstraße 1 (corner of Schlossstraße), 63065 Offenbach am Main.

Admission: Generally free, although donations for the artists ("hat donation") are expressly welcome.

Atmosphere: A relaxed setting with a bar, live performances, and plenty of outdoor seating directly on the Main River.

Program Highlights in March 2026

The program typically includes concerts, DJ sets, and film screenings. Currently Confirmed Dates:

March 27, 2026: Live concert by the Michael Lukas Trio.

Regular Events: Evenings with live music and rotating DJs are back, and the team is currently mourning the loss of long-time resident DJ Frankie Patella.

Categories & Events

Live Music & Concerts: The Waggon is known for niche music, from punk and jazz to electronic dance music.

Film & Culture: Regular film screenings (e.g., "Solarpunk Story") and festivals like Lusofest (Portuguese-language film) are part of the regular program.

Drinks & Bar: A selection of affordable drinks is available directly in the converted railway carriage.

For the latest updates and the complete program, please visit the official Waggon Offenbach website or Facebook page.

Restored Oxbow Fechenheim Main Bend

Highlight • River

The renatured old arm of the Main is located in the Fechenheim Main Arc. The aim of this measure is to return part of its former river bed to the Main. This is particularly important for flood protection.

Fechenheim Riverside Promenade

Highlight • Trail

At this point, the Main forms a striking S-shaped river loop. It shapes the urban river landscape between Frankfurt and Offenbach. The Fechenheimer Uferpromenade was built in the 1920s together with the construction of the tram line.

Arthur von Weinberg Footbridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Arthur-von-Weinberg-Steg, a nearly 100 meter arched bridge for pedestrians and cyclists, connects Fechenheim and the local recreation area in the Mainbogen between the Offenbach districts of Bürgel and Rumpenheim. If you follow the riverside path up the Main on the Fechenheim side, you will come to the Mainkur through the Cassella harbor.
