About Kronberg

A refined hilltop retreat in the Taunus

Welcome to Visit Kronberg.com, an independant Travel guide using the "Visit" branding style adopted by more and more private Tourist Guides, marketing-savvy Hotel organisations or official Convention and Visitors Bureau.

Kronberg im Taunus is a picturesque hilltop town overlooking the Rhine-Main region, known for its medieval charm, elegant villas and a long history shaped by nobility, artists and the natural beauty of the Taunus mountains.

Its origins stretch back to the Middle Ages, when the powerful Knights of Kronberg built their fortress on a rocky spur above the valley. The castle still dominates the skyline today. In the 19th century Kronberg transformed into a refined retreat that gave rise to the famous Kronberg Painters' Colony.

Today Kronberg feels like a peaceful escape just minutes from Frankfurt. This website exists in 15 languages — use the flag menu at the top to switch.

This privately operated site is not financed by taxes, but by affiliate revenues. When you book a Hotel
or a Tourist Tour a small commission is perceived.
While the price does not change for you, you contribute to the development of a new web project.
