Living in Frankfurt

Frankfurt is a cosmopolitan city at the centre of Europe

The open and hospitable atmosphere in Frankfurt stems from its centuries-old role as a trading centre.

The city is home to many businesses and to academic and research institutions.

As major transport hub, the airport has flights to almost everywhere in the world. Major European cities such as Amsterdam, Berlin, Brussels and Paris are less than four hours away by train.

Frankfurt offers a variety of cultural and sporting activities. The city has many high-profile art galleries and museum exhibitions. Festivals and other events are held along the banks of the River Main throughout the year.
