With more than 30 museums, Frankfurt has one of the largest variety of museums in Europe. Most museums are part of the [[Museumsufer]], located on the front row of both sides of the [[Main (river)|Main]] riverbank or nearby, which was created on an initiative by cultural politician [[Hilmar Hoffmann]].<ref name="Museumsufer Frankfurt">{{cite web | title=Museumsufer Frankfurt | website=Museumsufer Frankfurt | url=https://www.museumsufer.de/en/ | access-date=21 December 2022 | archive-date=21 December 2022 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20221221093747/https://www.museumsufer.de/en/ | url-status=live }}</ref>
