Schweizerstrasse is the main highstreet in the beautiful Sachsenhausen district south of the river Main.
Escape the massing throngs into a classic European tree lined avenue jam-packed with swanky bars for the beautiful people and cider taverns for everyone else. All mixed in with your normal highstreet shops, you can find everything here in one street without having search round and get lost.
Recommended is 'Zumgemaltenhaus' (the painted house) for a traditional local cider tavern, huge portions of quality local dishes and reasonable prices.
5 minutes walk from the city center, over the river Main via the 'Untermainbrücke' (bridge) leads directly to the start of the street.
Or via U-Bahn, U1,2,or 3 to Südbahnhof, get off at stop Schweizerplatz.
