Gallileo

Gallileo, Modern skyscraper in Bahnhofsviertel, Frankfurt, Germany.

Gallileo is a modern high-rise with two connected towers and a glass facade located in Frankfurt's Bahnhofsviertel district. The 38 floors contain office spaces and retail areas arranged in an L-shaped footprint.

Construction of this 136-meter building began in 1999 and was completed in 2003 as an investment project. This period marked a significant modernization phase in the Bahnhofsviertel district.

The ground floor houses the English Theatre Frankfurt, which hosts regular performances and draws audiences from across the city. Many visitors come here for a show and then explore the nearby cafes and restaurants.

The building has a clear L-shaped design that creates an open entrance facing Kaiser Street and makes it easy to locate. Elevators and stairs are well marked, which simplifies navigation through the different floors.

The name combines two references: it honors Galileo Galilei while also referring to Gallusanlage, the square where the building stands. This dual naming reflects how the location connects its history with its contemporary identity.
