Did you know?

The Friedensbrücke in Frankfurt was built in just two years, from 1950 to 1951, replacing the historic Wilhelmsbrücke.

Guided Story

Imagine standing here where the old Wilhelmsbrücke once connected the banks of the Main. Look south, and you'll see the striking bronze statue 'The Dockworker' by Constantin Meunier. It's a nod to the bustling trade that once thrived here. Behind you, Frankfurt's impressive skyline reaches for the sky. This bridge, linking Baseler Platz with Stresemannallee, is more than just a crossing over the river—it's a symbol of renewal and peace. To the east, you can spot the Museum Giersch, part of the city's rich tapestry of museums. Walking here not only offers breathtaking views but also a journey through Frankfurt's past and present.
