It does not matter whether you are looking for contemporary art or Old Masters, Goethe or his literary heirs, cultures of the world or the world of money, caricatures or sculptures, design or local history: Our 39 museums and exhibition venues offer a wide and unique variety of much that is quaint and spectacular, loud and quiet, ranging from small and precious finds to broad overviews.

Prepare to be amazed by the Museumsufer, one of the most notable museum worlds globally, boasting exceptional institutions scattered along both sides of the River Main – not to mention the entire city.
