- Sachsenhausen - The bike tour kicks off in the heart of Sachsenhausen, a vibrant and popular district of the city. The area is characterized by its charming Wilhelminian-era architecture, offering a high concentration of trendy bars, cozy cafes, and a wide variety of dining options, including traditional apple wine taverns. Here, hearty meals are served in a rustic setting, with the “Stöffsche” being a staple. In the 19th century, Sachsenhausen was known for its orchards, where the famous “Äppelwoi” was created, embodying the Hessian lifestyle long before the “Zum Blauen Bock” program.
- Holbeinsteg - Enjoy a leisurely ride through quaint streets and the Malerviertel, leading to the south bank of the Main River, home to the renowned museum embankment. Here, you’ll find the Städelsche Kunstinstitut with its esteemed annex and temporary exhibitions, the Liebieghaus, and the Museum of Applied Art. Crossing the Holbeinsteg brings you to the other side of the Main and into Frankfurt’s old town.

Just a short distance away is the Paulskirche, the birthplace of German democracy. Continue cycling through the Großer Hirschgraben to the Goethe family’s residence, where the renowned poet was born and spent his formative years, as vividly described in his autobiography “Poetry and Truth.”

- St. Paul’s Church (Paulskirche) - Originally an emporium building (1789-1833), the Paulskirche is celebrated as the “cradle of German democracy” and stands as a national symbol of freedom and democracy in Germany. On May 18, 1848, the first freely elected National Assembly convened in Frankfurt’s Paulskirche. The following months were dedicated to drafting a constitution for a unified Germany, which ultimately failed due to opposition from Prussia and Austria. Subsequent uprisings to enforce the constitution were suppressed, and the parliament was forcibly dissolved on May 30, 1849. From 1852 until its destruction in 1944, services were held again in St. Paul’s Church. On March 18, 1944, the Paulskirche was completely destroyed in a bombing raid and was later rebuilt as Frankfurt’s first historic building after the war.
- Cathedral of St. Bartholomew (Dom St. Bartholomaus) - Technically, the “Kaiserdom” is not a cathedral, as it was never the seat of a bishop. The Gothic parish church of St. Bartholomew, consecrated in 1239 and transformed into a Gothic hall church, received its honorary title “Kaiserdom” in the 18th century. It traces its origins to a Carolingian foundation in 852 and was designated in the “Golden Bull” of 1356 as the electoral church for German kings and, from 1562, also for the emperors of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation. From 1562 to 1792, 10 imperial coronations took place in Frankfurt Cathedral. The 96-meter-high late Gothic tower was completed during a major restoration following the great fire of 1867, which also melted all the historic bells. Many paintings from the post-1870 period were lost in the 1944 bombings. The cathedral’s current appearance was achieved through restoration from 1992 to 1994.
- Goethe House - The Goethe House on Großer Hirschgraben was home to the Goethe family until 1795. As Johann Wolfgang Goethe recounts in “Poetry and Truth,” he was born here on August 28, 1749, “at the stroke of twelve bells,” and spent his early years in this residence. The family sold the house in 1795. After being destroyed in the war on March 22, 1944, Goethe’s childhood home was reconstructed and furnished with preserved original furnishings.
- The Hauptwache - The Hauptwache is the bustling city center and the most renowned square in the Main metropolis. This square is the true heart of Frankfurt’s city center. The baroque guard building, which lends its name to the entire square, was constructed in 1729-30 by city architect Johann Jakob Samhaimer as a military station. The Hauptwache served as the seat of the city militia and included a prison. It gained historical significance during the storming of the guard on April 3, 1833, when about 50 young revolutionaries attempted to signal the establishment of a republic. Since 1904, the historic guard building has housed the popular Café Hauptwache. This, along with the nearby Normaluhr, became the city’s most famous meeting spot. In 1944, the Hauptwache was completely gutted after heavy bombing raids. It was reopened in 1954 and, during the construction of the subway in 1967, was first dismantled and then rebuilt above the subway station a year later.
