Dom-Museum

The Dom Museum is a history museum in Frankfurt that displays artworks and objects from the cathedral's treasury collection. The rooms contain Gothic sculptures, medieval paintings, liturgical vessels, and religious manuscripts spanning different periods.

The museum was founded in the early 1900s to preserve medieval artworks and religious items originally held in the cathedral's treasury. This collection traces Frankfurt's artistic and spiritual development from the Middle Ages through later centuries.

The collection displays religious artworks and objects that show the role of the cathedral in Frankfurt's community life over time. Visitors can see how these pieces shaped prayer practices and church celebrations across different centuries.

The museum is located next to the cathedral and opens Tuesday through Sunday. Visitors should allow time to explore the various rooms at a comfortable pace, and guided tours in multiple languages are available upon request.

The museum holds the original architectural plans and drawings of the cathedral dating from the 14th century. These documents reveal how the cathedral was designed and built, and they are rarely found in public collections.
