Encyclopedia > Consulate General of the United States in Frankfurt

The Consulate General of the United States in Frankfurt represents the interests of the United States in and around the area of Frankfurt, Germany. It is the United State's largest Consulate General, and is larger, in terms of both personnel and facilities, than many U.S. Embassies. Technically a part of Mission germany, and reporting through the Embassy of the United States in Berlin, The Frankfurt CG operates with a significant degree of autonomy. This is due in part to the regional centers operating out of Frankfurt, which provide support in security, constrcution, and financial matters to a number of other U.S Diplomatic posts located in Europe, the Middle East and in Africa.


in 2006 The Frankfurt CG relocated most all of its operations to single facility - a former hospital, once operated byt eU.S military, and before that by the German military. The refurbished and now modified building is quite large and expansive. The Frankfurt Consular district covers the German states of Hesse, Rhineland-Palatinate, Baden-Württemberg and Saarland. Hesse (German: Hessen) is a state of Germany with an area of 21,110 km² and just over six million inhabitants. ... The Rhenish Palatinate (Rheinpfalz, sometimes Lower Palatinate or Niederpfalz) occupies rather more than a quarter of the German Bundesland (federal state) of Rhineland-Palatinate (Rheinland-Pfalz) and contains the towns of Ludwigshafen, Kaiserslautern, Neustadt an der Weinstrasse, Pirmasens, Landau and Speyer. ... Baden-Württemberg is a state of the Federal Republic of Germany in the southwestern part of the country to the east of the Upper Rhine. ... Saarland is one of the 16 states of Germany. ...
