Visitors Center

Information on the current situation

Deutsche Börse AG is converting the historic exchange building in downtown Frankfurt and redesigning the Deutsche Börse Visitors Center. Please be aware that the opening of the Deutsche Börse Visitors Center will be postponed due to the measures to contain Covid-19. Therefore, we are currently unable to offer stock exchange visits or take appointment reservations. We kindly ask for your understanding. If you would like to be kept up to date on current developments, please register for our newsletter.

Understanding stock exchange trading

How does trading in stocks work? What do bull and bear stand for? And what is the significance of the stock market in our daily life? In Deutsche Börse's interactive exhibition you will find answers to these and many other questions. And for those who want to learn more about the stock exchange, we are also offering lectures.

In the Deutsche Börse Visitors Center, the stock exchange can be touched and experienced. In an engaging exhibition you will discover the world of the stock exchange and stock trading at multimedia stations. At the end of the tour you can watch trading at close range: from the Visitors Gallery you can look directly onto the trading floor.

There's more to enjoy:

Explore the world of stock markets on the Multimedia Touch Wall.
Get to know the process of a trading transaction.
Just try it out: Simulate a stock transaction.
Test your stock market knowledge with the quiz “Who becomes a shareholder”?
Slip into the role of a trader from the 1980s – with a historical brokerage barrier and trader's office.
