Westendhall, Political faction in Frankfurt, Germany.

The Westendhall faction operated from a hotel between Taunusbahnhof and Main-Weser-Bahnhof stations along the Frankfurt city walls during 1848.

Heinrich Simon led this left-wing group that emerged from the centrist Württemberger Hof faction in July 1848 during the Frankfurt Parliament meetings.

The members earned the designation 'Linke im Frack' from other left-wing groups due to their formal attire and moderate political positions.

The faction gathered regularly at the Westendhall hotel to discuss constitutional matters and form alliances with other political groups in Parliament.

Despite their republican principles, the members supported the Casino faction's hereditary monarchy position during critical parliamentary votes in 1848.
