Schwedlersee
A hidden gem in Frankfurt's East Harbor
Did you know?
Schwedlersee was never connected to the harbor's north basin.
Guided Story
Here you are at Schwedlersee, an artificially created lake in the Frankfurt East Harbor. Originally excavated for the harbor's northern basin expansion, it was never connected to it. Instead, the basin filled with groundwater, offering a peaceful retreat in the city. As you take in the tranquil waters, imagine how this place was meant to be part of a bustling harbor. Look around and enjoy the natural surroundings that make this spot so unique. To the northwest, you can find the Ensemble Modern, and just west of here is Atelierfrankfurt. These cultural landmarks are a short walk away, adding an interesting dimension to your visit here at the lake.
