Visitors Terrace Frankfurt Airport
The Visitors’ Terrace at Frankfurt Airport is one of the city’s most popular attractions, offering a front-row seat to the excitement of international aviation. Located in Terminal 2, the terrace provides sweeping views of the runways and aprons, where aircraft from more than 200 airlines take off and land each day. Open daily, it is easily accessible without a security check, making it a welcoming space for families, plane enthusiasts, and travelers alike. Comfortable seating, shaded pergolas, and wooden platforms create a relaxed atmosphere, while specially designed viewing gaps in the safety fence allow for clear photography. The terrace is often described as Frankfurt’s “most beautiful balcony,” where the thrill of wanderlust meets the calm of open skies. Visitors can watch the choreography of ground crews, the arrival of long-haul jets, and the constant rhythm of one of Europe’s busiest airports. Whether you come to capture photos, inspire a child’s fascination with flight, or simply enjoy the spectacle of global travel, the Visitors’ Terrace is a unique vantage point that connects the city to the wider world.
