Here you will find the Bundesbank, the important German Stock Exchange and more than 350
international banks. This is a city of superlatives: it is an important industrial trade
and transport center. Hoechst and AEG are headquartered here. Frankfurt is an advertising
capital and is host to the most important international trade fairs (for the automobile
and book industries, among others). It is also the transportation center of the country,
with the largest airport in Europe. Frankfurt offers a great and convenient
location to learn German in a full immersion program.
