Frankfurt (Oder) is the social, cultural and economic upper center in the Oderland-Spree region. Together with its Polish neighboring city Słubice, Frankfurt (Oder) as a European twin city and thanks to its economic and research institutions is an international place to work and live, a city of encounters, exchange and communication. The good connection to Berlin via road (A12) and rail (RE1) and its geographical function as a bridge between Central and Eastern Europe make Frankfurt (Oder) an important part of the German capital region.
Earthly and lively
The modern city bridge over the Oder embodies the close cooperation and shared vision of the twin city. In the middle of Europe, a cosmopolitan and vibrant European urban space is being created here, offering lively flair, art, culture, sports, lush greenery and a long urban history.
The origins of the city date back to the 13th century. In 1226 the first merchants settled, in 1253 the town charter was granted and the construction of the town hall in the style of North German Brick Gothic began. In addition to the town hall, St. Mary's Church, the Carl Philipp Emanuel Bach Concert Hall and the Peace Church are also part of the European Route of Brick Gothic.
My family and I, we feel very comfortable here on the Oder River, where Germany and Poland meet. Frankfurt is a really livable city with short distances, nice people and I think also with very, very much potential for the future. Frankfurt (Oder) and Slubice are two fascinating cities in the heart of Europe, with an exciting history.
