Licht- und Luftbad Niederrad, Green space and recreational area in Niederrad district, Frankfurt, Germany.

The Licht- und Luftbad Niederrad occupies a roughly 500 m long, narrow peninsula on the southern bank of the Main in Niederrad, opened in 1900 as a public river bathing site. The park is divided west to east into four zones: a barbecue and events area, a sunbathing and play lawn, a gastronomy area, and a further lawn. It holds a playground, about 150 m² of piled sand beach, a barbecue area and a café on a 19 m steel pontoon.

The peninsula was created when the Niederrad lock was built between 1883 and 1885, and the open-air bathing ground opened there in 1900. During the Nazi period it remained until 1938 the last public bathing facility in Frankfurt open to Jewish residents; from November 1938 they were barred from all public baths, and the SA took over the site the following year. A memorial plaque unveiled in 1994 recalls the persecution of the city's Jewish population.

The cafe on the grounds is run by an organization that employs people with disabilities and serves food from the region. Stopping there for a meal or a drink means supporting a workplace built around inclusion.

The grounds are open every day and the flat paths along both sides of the peninsula are easy to walk for most visitors. On weekends and warm days the area fills up quickly, so a weekday morning visit offers a calmer experience.

The cafe sits on a steel pontoon that rises with the Main when floodwaters come and settles back down once the level drops, without any manual intervention. This means the building quietly adjusts to the river's seasonal swings on its own.
