The Städel, officially the Städelsches Kunstinstitut und Städtische Galerie, is an art museum in Frankfurt, with one of the most important collections in Germany. The museum is located at the Museumsufer on the Sachsenhausen bank of the River Main. The Städel Museum owns 3,100 paintings, 660 sculptures, more than 4,600 photographs and more than 100,000 drawings and prints.[5][6] It has around 7,000 m2 (75,000 sq ft) of display and a library of 115,000 books.[7]
In 2012, the Städel was honoured as Museum of the Year by the German art critics association AICA.[8][9] In the same year the museum recorded the highest attendance figures in its history, of 447,395 visitors.[10] In 2020 the museum had 318,732 visitors, down 45 percent from 2019, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
