Frankfurt: history & character

Frankfurt am Main, a Free Imperial City of the Holy Roman Empire and the coronation site of emperors for five centuries, is today Germany's financial capital and headquarters of the European central Bank. Behind its skyline of skyscrapers (unique in continental Europe) hides a surprisingly green city: more than 52% of its territory is forest, park, or water, including the 4,200-hectare Stadtwald, one of the largest city-owned forests in Germany. The historic Sachsenhausen district, with its cobbled alleys and century-old Apfelweinwirtschaften (apple-wine taverns), embodies the other face of the city: traditional, welcoming, resolutely dog-friendly. Between the 4 km Mainufer promenade, the Stadtwald trails, and the fenced off-leash zones in Grüneburgpark and Niddapark, Frankfurt offers dog owners a rare balance between big metropolis and urban nature.
