About Rödelheim
Where to stay in Rödelheim
Each area has its own feel; here's who each one suits.
A bed in Rödelheim trades the skyline of Frankfurt am Main for parish streets around the Antoniuskirche and the ground below Burg Rödelheim. Two Stadtbezirke split the choice. Anyone in the city for the Frankfurt Book Fair or the Frankfurt Auto Show will find that Rödelheim-Ost and Rödelheim-West both sit clear of the centre, leaving the rail connections of Hesse's largest city to handle the daily run in.
About Rödelheim
What are the main landmarks in Rödelheim?
Burg Rödelheim heads the list. Churches account for most of what follows, from the Antoniuskirche to the Evangelische Kirche Hausen, a run of parish buildings that leaves the quarter with more towers than five square kilometres would normally hold. Congregations are not all German-speaking here, since a Coptic Orthodox parish also counts among the landmarks of Rödelheim.
None of it competes with the skyline that Frankfurt am Main is known for.
What is the history of Rödelheim?
Two names divide the quarter. Rödelheim-Ost and Rödelheim-West are the Stadtbezirke that split it, and both fall under the Ortsbezirk Mitte-West of Frankfurt am Main, a city counted the business and financial centre of Germany. Older ground shows in Burg Rödelheim and in the parish churches that outnumber anything modern on the landmark list of Rödelheim.
Where is Rödelheim?
Rödelheim covers about five square kilometres inside Frankfurt am Main, largest city of Hesse, and divides into the Stadtbezirke Rödelheim-Ost and Rödelheim-West.
