Gay Guide Frankfurt/Main
Those who visit Frankfurt will be reminded of an American municipality rather than a European City, as it is the only city characterised by its sky scrapers. This municipality of superlatives has the largest airport in continental Europe, the world eminent fair and exhibition centre and all the most crucial German banks can be found here. Nevertheless only people live here. This is noticable when one visits the local, small but welcoming gay scene. One always encounters many foreigners here, and in contrast to many other large European cities, it is effortless to strike up a conversation over a beer or glass apple wine. The tourist attractions in this capital, completed demolished during the war, add the Römer, the opera house the Gothic Emperor's Dome and the Paul's Church - making Frankfurt one of Germany's most historical cities. Other recommendations include the Kunsthalle Schirn, the Architecture Museum and the Städel. The big Christopher Street Celebration and its parties take place from the 14th to 16th July
