A great value for 5 Euro - most of these types of observation towers in the US cost a lot more. There's only 2 elevators and they're pretty small, so if you go during a busy time, you might have to wait. But once you get up there, you'll be treated to a spectacular view of Frankfurt. You see the... More

If you're in frankfurt for more than a day this is a must see place. 5 Euro takes you up more than fifty floors and the view is breathtaking. It also helps you get tour bearings around the city (I think) There is a security check similar to an airport but it doesn't take long although that will probably be... More

Probably the best views in Frankfurt. If you like to see a city from a high point, this is the perfect choice. It might take a while to pass the security control (similar to the one in an airport) if a group just came in, and some of the staff are actually unfriendly (lady with glasse selling tickets and a...

This is a great place to appreciate the size and two distinct differences to this city. From the main tower you can see the old and the new areas of Franfurt and it is well worth a visit More

Having read in the guide book about the Main Tower, we decided to pay the 5.50 euros to go up, and we weren't disappointed!
