...

To mark its milestone anniversary, the tower shines into the night sky as Frankfurt's tallest birthday candle. On 22 August, the vibrant street festival offers fun for all generations—complete with delicious food, drinks, music, dance, circus performances, and plenty of attractions!

The celebrations are being held in partnership with neighbours from the GDA Wohnstift retirement home, the Ambulant Children's and Youth Hospice Service Frankfurt, Produktionshaus Naxos, the Hessisches Literaturforum, and NIPPON CONNECTION. Anyone who is curious will have the opportunity to rediscover every corner of the Mousonturm and the area surrounding the city's very first high-rise during guided tours with various thematic focuses—including Frankfurt's most spectacular view of the skyline.

On Sunday 23 August, a soapbox derby will take place.
