Höchster Altstadt, Historic district in Frankfurt-West, Germany.
The Höchster Altstadt contains 400 half-timbered houses and medieval structures along narrow streets near the Main River in Frankfurt's western district.
After surviving fires in 1586 and 1778, the old town received heritage protection status in 1972, leading to extensive renovations of its historical buildings.
The district features the Kronberger Haus museum, which displays 1,000 pieces of Höchst ceramics representing regional porcelain craftsmanship from different periods.
Visitors can reach various landmarks including Höchst Castle, the Old Town Hall, and Justinus Church through the network of pedestrian streets and public transport.
The area maintains Germany's second oldest porcelain manufacturer, continuing production methods established more than 260 years ago within the historic district.
