Dreieichenhain, Medieval district in Dreieich, Germany.

Dreieichenhain is a medieval district in Dreieich with numerous half-timbered houses and preserved medieval city gates. The Fahrgasse street connects two historic gates through narrow lanes with traditional German architecture.

The district emerged in the 12th century as a settlement and developed into a regional trade center with significant fortifications. The ruins of Burg Hayn and its fortress still stand as evidence of this medieval past.

The district hosts the Burgfestspiele summer festival, which brings theater performances and concerts to the castle grounds. Visitors experience regional and international artists performing in this medieval setting.

The district is well connected by public transportation to surrounding urban centers. The nearby museum offers free or affordable entry with interactive displays suitable for visitors of all ages.

The Fahrgasse street runs along the 50th parallel and forms part of a national route connecting half-timbered house villages. This historic street links not just two gates but also a network of similarly preserved medieval districts.
