p:abstract
  • Frankfurt am Main is the largest city in the German state of Hesse and the fifth-largest city in Germany, with a 2008 population of 670,000. The urban area had an estimated population of 2.26 million in 2001. The city is at the centre of the larger Frankfurt Rhine Main Region which has a population of 5.3 million and is Germany's second largest metropolitan area. In English, this city's name translate as "Frankfurt on the Main". A large early tribe in the area was the Franks and in German "Furt" means a river crossing. Thus, in medieval times, "Frankfurt" meant the Franks' river crossing. Situated on the Main River, Frankfurt is the financial and transportation centre of Germany and the largest financial centre in continental Europe.It is the place of residence of the European Central Bank, the German Federal Bank, the Frankfurt Stock Exchange and the Frankfurt Trade Fair, as well as several large commercial banks. Frankfurt International Airport is one of the world's busiest airports, Frankfurt Central Station is one of the largest terminal stations in Europe, and the Frankfurter Kreuz is the most heavily used interchange in continental Europe. Frankfurt is the only German city listed as one of ten Alpha world cities. Frankfurt lies in the former American Occupation Zone of Germany, and it was formerly the headquarters city of the U.S. Army in Germany, but what is left of that organization has moved out of Frankfurt to some more remote location. Among English speakers the city is commonly known simply as "Frankfurt", though Germans occasionally call it by its full name when it is necessary to distinguish it from the other "Frankfurt" in the state of Brandenburg, Frankfurt .

  • Frankfurt am Main ist mit über 659. 000 Einwohnern die größte Stadt Hessens und nach Berlin, Hamburg, München und Köln die fünftgrößte Deutschlands. Seit dem Mittelalter gehört Frankfurt zu den bedeutendsten urbanen Zentren Deutschlands. 794 erstmals urkundlich erwähnt, war es seit dem Hochmittelalter Freie Reichsstadt und bis 1806 Wahl- und Krönungsstadt der römisch-deutschen Kaiser. Von 1816 bis 1866 war Frankfurt Sitz des Deutschen Bundes und 1848/49 des ersten frei gewählten deutschen Parlaments. Heute ist Frankfurt ein bedeutendes europäisches Finanz-, Messe- und Dienstleistungszentrum. Die Stadt ist Sitz der Europäischen Zentralbank, der Deutschen Bundesbank, der Frankfurter Wertpapierbörse und der Frankfurter Messe. Durch ihre zentrale Lage gehört sie mit dem Frankfurter Flughafen, dem Hauptbahnhof und dem Frankfurter Kreuz zu den wichtigsten Verkehrsknotenpunkten Europas. 1875 zählte Frankfurt erstmals über 100. 000 Einwohner, 1928 zum ersten Mal mehr als 500. 000. In der engeren Stadtregion leben heute etwa 1,8 Millionen, im gesamten Rhein-Main-Gebiet 5,8 Millionen Einwohner. Eine Besonderheit Frankfurts ist die Skyline, deren Wolkenkratzer zu den höchsten Gebäuden Europas gehören. (de)
