Höchst – A traditional timber-frame town teeming with history
Frankfurt Höchst is a multifaceted city district
Time-honoured timber-frame architecture, centuries of industrial heritage and a world-famous porcelain manufactory – Frankfurt Höchst is a lively city district that looks back on a long and storied past. Heritage-listed since 1972, the famous old town of Höchst is Frankfurt's largest enclosed timber-frame housing ensemble, with most of its buildings having been erected shortly after the great fire of 1586.
