Address and directions

WELCOMECENTER Hessen is located right in the city centre of Frankfurt am Main. The address is Fischerfeldstraße 10 – 12 in Frankfurt am Main, 2nd floor, Room 2.414 in the Agentur für Arbeit building. You can access our building via the main entrance to the Agentur für Arbeit.

The nearest public transport stops are Konstablerwache (S-Bahn S1–S6, S8, S9; U-Bahn U4–U7), Dom/Römer (U–Bahn U4, U5), Börneplatz (Tram 11, 12; Bus 30, 36), Schöne Aussicht (Bus 30, 36), Hospital zum Heiligen Geist (Tram 14, 18).

If you’re travelling by car, you can get to Fischerfeldstraße from Kurt-Schumacher-Straße via Rechneigrabenstraße and Schützenstraße, from Schöne Aussicht via Mainstraße, Rechneigrabenstraße and Schützenstraße, and – if you’re coming from the north – via Lange Straße (Cityring). This is where you’ll find the entrance to the parking deck.
