Frankfurt Archaeological Museum

The Archaeological Museum Frankfurt contains exhibits from prehistoric times through Roman and medieval periods, housed in a former Carmelite monastery complex.

Established in 1937 from the archaeological department of the Local History Museum, the institution endured significant losses during World War II bombings.

The museum displays extensive collections of Etruscan, Roman, Celtic, Germanic, Greek, and Persian artifacts that showcase the regional development through centuries.

Located near Frankfurt Cathedral, the museum offers guided tours in multiple languages and maintains specialized exhibitions in the cathedral nave.

The museum preserves twenty-nine original paint containers from a Roman painter's tomb, providing direct evidence of ancient artistic practices.
