What you need to know
- No strollers on the deck, since they must stay downstairs, so bring a carrier for babies
- Security check with a metal detector before the elevator, and visits are capped at 45 minutes from that point
- Wind or rain can close the top deck, though the enclosed 55th floor often stays open, so check the homepage before going
About
Main Tower is a skyscraper in the banking district with Frankfurt's highest viewing platform, 200 meters up. A high-speed elevator climbs to the enclosed 55th floor, then stairs lead to the open-air deck above.
On a clear day kids can trace the river Main and spot the Taunus hills, and a free AR app labels cities on the horizon. A poor pick for anyone uneasy with heights or wind.
