Main Tower offers a magnificent view of the city, and it is outside. We made sure to go on a clear day,and really enjoyed it.

The Main Tower is localized in the middle of frankfurt beside the highest building (the Commerzbank tower). One can visit the top of the building and the one has a very nice view over all of frankfurt as well as the airport. One can even see Darmstadt which is around 30 km to the south and to Hanau in the... More

Excellent viewing platform with 360 degree views. Can get very cold up top but the floor below has floor to ceiling glass windows. Would 'highly' recommend.

The Main Tower at Frankfurt am Main is well worth a visit if your in town. The view from the viewing platform is fantastic if you can stomach the height. I am a vertigo sufferer but forced myself to go up and am pleased that I did!

I've done this three times over two years. It's just a great view of the entire city. Make sure you only go when visibility is good otherwise it will disappoint. Good value for 5 euros. Airport security style entrance so make sure you get the coins etc already in your jacket ready for scanning to not hold up others!

Well worth the effort to find it, as it's up a side street and I think there was only signs from 1 direction, but a detail. Been up on 2 different types of days/different holidays and unless it's very misty or wet, you really can see for miles. The town is like a map below - really good. I'm not... More

If you are going to be in Frankfurt, then this is a must go place. The views from the top are absolutely amazing. One can see the entire city and beyond.
