With your kids

The summer by the sea is slowly fading, the days are getting shorter and we kindly invite you to celebrate the "magic of lights" with us! Experience the festival of a thousand lights with artistic performances and a firework by the lake at the romantic-enchanted Godewindpark. The trees, the lake and the meadows transform into a shining sea of lights in the evening hours and create a fantastic scenery for night owls and those who love to take a walk under a starry sky.

Immerse yourself in the 1,200-year history of the Main metropolis. Countless sightseeing attractions serve to highlight both the former and the current importance of Frankfurt am Main. Come and feel the pulse of time. Frankfurt stands for innovation and development. It is a place where trends are set, where ideas become reality. Frankfurt architecture ranks among the most modern in all of Europe. Trendy bars, pubs, up-and-coming fashion labels and a booming creative industry mirrors Frankfurts zeitgeist. Frankfurt´s signifiance as a bustling international trade and finance location dates back to the Middle Ages. Today, Frankfurt is also a popular shopping paradise, offering a colourful diversity range of products and services for every taste and every pocketbook. Frankfurt is a pulsating metropolis. Business and finance, trade shows, shopping and a vivacious nightlife combine to make "Mainhattan" one of Germany´s most exciting cities. Frankfurt also has a warm and cosy side. Rest and recuperate at one of the traditional apple wine pubs of Old Sachenhausen, visit one of the 48 beautiful parks and gardens or stroll along the River Main, Frankfurt´s majestic water-way, which meanders gracefully through the heart of the city.

The kites are flying! The kites will be flying high over Travemünde's beach once again. Professionals and amateurs alike send kites of every type into the sky. The kite flyers must contend with the autumn wind, while the newly designed Strandpromenade offers spectators the best possible vantage point for the colourful event on the beach. Refreshments will naturally be on offer as well. Children can make their own kites and kite chains under supervision in the “Spielmobil”.
