The event spaces at the Frankfurt Historical Museum are distinguished by their central downtown location and are situated right next to the Römerberg. The light-filled Leopold Sonnemann Hall offers a sweeping view of the Main River and the Sachsenhausen riverbank through its large windows, lending a special flair to every event. The technical equipment and flexible seating arrangements make it possible to host a variety of event types. The event hall is complemented by the adjacent Rententurm Foyer, which can be used as a reception area or a space for customizable catering.
The Schneekugel Foyer is particularly well-suited for receptions or networking events and provides direct access to the museum’s courtyards. Our seminar room is ideal for smaller workshop groups and seminars. All event spaces feature accessible entrances.
Our team is happy to assist you and provide personalized advice. If you’re interested, please contact us at:
