Five things to see/do in Frankfurt: Frankfurt’s Old Opera House (Alte Oper) is one of the city’s best known landmarks and is worth checking out both architecturally and performance-wise (most of which are world-class).
The historic Römerberg square neighborhood of Frankfurt offers a lot of beautiful architecture (such as the neo-gothic Römer (City Hall) building and the early Gothic Alte Nikolaikirche), as well as several cafes, restaurants, and bars.
Go to the top of the Main Tower (200m/600ft) to get a 360 degree view of the city (especially impressive at night).
Frankfurt has a wealth of museums for art lovers. Some notable ones are the Historische Museum (Museum of History), which outlines the history of the city from the Middle Ages to the present, the Staedelsches KunstInstitute, and the Schirn Kunsthalle (Schirn Art Gallery), specializing in contemporary/modern art.
The monumental 14th century Cathedral of St. Bartholomew (Dom St. Bartholomaus) was the seat of the coronation of Holy Roman Emperors for about 300 years.
