Historical Museum Frankfurt, History museum in downtown Frankfurt, Germany
The Historical Museum Frankfurt displays cultural and historical objects across 2,000 square meters within five thematic galleries dedicated to the city's development.
Founded in 1878, the museum underwent major renovations before reopening in 2012, followed by the inauguration of a new building in 2017.
The exhibitions present Frankfurt's evolution through different periods, from Medieval times to the modern metropolis, including artifacts from the Carmelite church.
