Brüder Grimm-Haus and Museum Steinau

Fairy-Tale Road


The famous German folklorists, born in nearby Hanau, lived in this handsome Renaissance stone house as children, from 1791 to 1796. It now houses exhibits on the life and times of the brothers, their work, and the history of Steinau. Hourly regional trains run to Steinau from Frankfurt am Main; the house is a 20-minute walk from the train station.
