About Westend Tower

The Westend Tower is a 208-meter-tall skyscraper in Frankfurt's Westend district, completed in 1993 and now serving as the headquarters of DZ Bank. Designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox, the building stands out for its light granite facade and a distinctive crown of rays at the top, a nod to Frankfurt's history as a coronation city. Visitors can explore a large, publicly accessible lobby with a restaurant on the ground floor. A special highlight outside the building is the nearly 12-meter-tall sculpture Inverted Collar and Tie by Claes Oldenburg and Coosje van Bruggen. One of the tallest buildings in Germany, the tower clearly shapes the city skyline and offers an interesting mix of office space and apartments in the outer areas.
