Mühlheim am Main

Mühlheim am Main is a town on the left bank of the Main River between Offenbach and Hanau in the Frankfurt region. The town spreads across different neighborhoods and residential areas that together form an urban municipality along the waterway.

The town originated from ten water mills that once stood along the Rodau and Bieber brooks, giving the settlement its name. Today only the Brückenmühle survives and is regularly shown to the public during Whit Monday celebrations.

The Kulturfabrik EigenArt and Gerda's kleine Weltbühne shape local cultural life with regular theater performances and art events. These venues serve as gathering places for people interested in music, theater, and creative projects.

The town has two S-Bahn stations with connections to Frankfurt and Offenbach, giving visitors good options to explore the region. Local bus lines supplement the transport network and help move between different neighborhoods.

Former basalt quarries in the Dietesheimer Steinbrüche are now natural spaces that hold traces of industrial heritage. These areas show how old mining sites can transform into green zones with special habitats for plants and animals.
