Neuer Henninger Turm, Residential skyscraper in Sachsenhausen-Süd district, Frankfurt, Germany

The Neuer Henninger Turm is a 140-metre residential high-rise in Frankfurt-Sachsenhausen, built from 2014 on the site of the demolished Henninger Turm and completed in November 2017. Its square main body carries an angular neck and a six-storey barrel-shaped top, quoting the silhouette of the earlier tower, while the facade is dominated by glass. It holds 207 luxury apartments, planned by Meixner Schlüter Wendt for the developer Actris.

The building replaced the original Henninger Turm, a grain storage silo built in 1961 that was Frankfurt's tallest structure until 1974. The demolition and reconstruction marked a major transformation of the city skyline in this area.

The restaurant "Franziska" opened on the tower's terrace at the end of September 2018, the last of seven commercial spaces to be filled. Its name and terrace setting tie the tower's gastronomy to the Henninger brewery site below, where around 800 further apartments and a shopping centre were rising at the same time.

The building is accessible to visitors and features a public staircase in the courtyard as well as retail spaces and a restaurant on the top floor. The best time to visit is during daytime when the public areas and shops are open.

The building preserves the recognizable silhouette of the former grain silo while functioning as a completely modern residential structure. This combination of old forms and new purpose creates an unexpected visual feature for the Frankfurt skyline.
