Showing Visitors Around Frankfurt with Kids, 2 of 16: Frankfurt Cathedral Tower



The west tower of the Kaiserdom, the church where Holy Roman emperors were crowned, rises 95 meters over the Altstadt. A narrow spiral staircase of 328 steps climbs to a viewing platform 66 meters up, with views over the Römerberg, the Main and the skyscrapers, and on clear days the Taunus hills. There is no elevator, so it suits kids who can manage a steep, steady climb.
