Rechneigrabenweiher, Urban pond in Frankfurt, Germany

The Rechneigrabenweiher spans 0.8 hectares with a length of 135 meters and a width of 60 meters in Frankfurt's green belt.

The pond emerged from southeastern water fortification ditches after the city walls were demolished in 1812, initially serving as a fire water reservoir.

A red Main sandstone boat memorial stands at the shore, commemorating the historical importance of Frankfurt's fishermen and boatmen communities.

Visitors can reach the pond via S-Bahn lines S1-6 and S8 at Ostendstraße station or trams 11 and 14 at Allerheiligentor stop.

Jakob Guiollett's grave remains the only burial site permitted within the park grounds, honoring his role in creating Frankfurt's green belt system.
