Museum für Moderne Kunst (Museum of Modern Art)
The outside of the main building of the Museum of Modern Art (MMK1) alone would count as one of the city’s major attractions.A modern architectural counterpoint to Frankfurt’s superb historical buildings, the Museum of Modern Art is worth visiting to admire from the outside alone. Through the main doors, visitors are rewarded with a peerless collection of post–war art, predominantly by German and American artists. There’s work from modern masters including Roy Lichtenstein, Claes Oldenburg, Andy Warhol, Francis Bacon and Joseph Beuys. In addition to its vast permanent collection, the museum also plays host to a series of impressive rolling exhibitions and has an excellent cafe-restaurant for hungry visitors too.
