Ich war am 31.1.24 dort. Exponate die unsere Kultur bereichern. Heute, am 16.2., trauert Europa mit all diesen Heiligen um Nawalny.
The museum itself has a nice collection, although nothing very unique. Coming from an orthodox country I was surprised that Frankfurt had an icons museum and I got curious to pay a visit. Some of the most interesting pieces come from Ethiopia. However, it was disappointing having main pieces missing. At the same time, I don't think that you will find many things that you can't see at a monastery in the Balkans which is fre of charge. The staff was rude, refusing to speak to me in English!! They didn't accept any card, in 2023, and they didn't even accept a 50 or a 20 euro bill. I went there with a free entrance, and only if it's for free or if you spend around 5 euros it is worth visiting with this collection and this staff!
This museum hosts a remarkable collection of greek russian, slavic and ethipioc icons, with some very rare and remarkable subjects.
Not sure if the cost of the tickets is worth of the visit and please in 2023 card payments should be accepted.

Im Vergleich zu den anderen Frankfurter Museen ein eher kleines Museum. Hinten links im großen Ausstellungsraum ist eine Vitrine mit einem schwarzen Tuch abgedeckt. Ich wurde von einem Museumswärter gefragt, ob ich mir ansehen wollte, was darunter ist. Unter dem Tuch liegt ein sehr altes Buch, das normalerweise immer abgedeckt ist, um es vor schädlichen Sonnenstrahlen zu schützen. Man wird vom Museumswärter gebeten, das Tuch nach dem Ansehen wieder draufzulegen.
Not that very big, but you can see story of birth of father. Also the staffs are very kind. It's interesting that the same story was found in Asia and Europe around the same time.
Plenty icons with Oklad and without. Virgin depictions and further.
There are enough icons to take 1h to view but not more, so that the museum doesn't drag on for too long. For me it's the perfect balance of time and content.
Entry price is more than fair at 5€

The staff is extremely polite and friendly. The museum is nice. Icons are mostly from Russia, Ukraine, Greece and Ethiopia. I highly recommend it.
A beautiful, rather small museum, with a collection of icons originating mainly from Russia, Greece and Ethiopia. I highly recommend it.
It's located close to the Main river and is a nice stop during a walk along the river and through the park.
