Stadel Museum – This is the biggie art museum in Frankfurt, a biggie anywhere in Europe, for that matter. You'll find works by Dutch painters Rembrandt, Bosch, and Vermeer, and Impressionists Matisse, Renoir, Degas and Monet, but be sure to check out the German painters, Durer, Cranach, Hans Holbein the Younger, and Max Beckmann. |

Museum of Communication (Museum
fur Kommunikation) – A museum all about communication with lots of multimedia exhibits of the history of postal
services in Germany (beautiful mail coaches pulled by horses), and telecommunications - kids can see old fashioned telephones, radios and TVs. |

After
you've done the museums, head for Stadtwald (City Forest) – south of Sachsenhausen.
This big park is great for strolling, plenty of trails to stretch your legs, especially in the section called Louisa Park, with its little lakes. Lots of picnic tables and benches, bring your lunch. |
