Photo quests in Frankfurt

What the catalogue actually holds here, and which of it is worth rearranging a day around.

Frankfurt holds 16 quests across five categories, with no single one of them defining the place: Food, History and Nature are level at four quests each. The categories with nothing in Frankfurt so far are Beach and Party.

One is tier 1, the tier kept for what a visitor would not have found on their own: Feldbahnmuseum. It is also the only quest here whose check-in asks for PRO; the other 15 are open on any plan. Tier 3 covers eleven of them, which is the label for what a visitor would expect a travel app to have anyway.

A food quest names the dish rather than the restaurant: the pin sits on the room that serves it, but what you are going for is the plate. History here means places where something happened and the ground still shows it, which is also where the famous version and the standing version most often part company. Every check-in works the same way: the geotag your camera wrote into the photo has to land within 200 m of the quest's own point.

By category

Each of these opens the whole category across every city, with the Frankfurt quests among them.

Tier 1

The unexpected ones

The one quests in Frankfurt the catalogue files as finds rather than fixtures — the half of a city a guidebook has no room for.

Questions

About quests in Frankfurt

How many photo quests are there in Frankfurt?
16, across five of the seven categories the catalogue uses. The deepest groups are History (4), Nature (4) and Food (4). Nothing in Beach and Party here yet — a category appears in a city the moment a quest is published into it, so the gaps move. Among them: Frankfurt Cathedral, Alter Flugplatz and Kunstverein Familie Montez.
What is there to do in Frankfurt beyond the obvious?
One of the 16 quests in Frankfurt is tier 1, which is the catalogue's own mark for a find rather than a landmark: the pipeline that writes it is told that tier 3 is "everything a visitor would expect a travel app to have", and that tiers 1 and 2 are "only the unexpected finds". Frankfurt holds one at tier 1, four at tier 2 and 11 at tier 3. The tier 1 quest here is Feldbahnmuseum, in History.
Can you do all the Frankfurt quests on one trip?
Most of them, with transport. The outermost of the 16 is 8.9 km from the middle of the Frankfurt list, so the cluster in the middle is an afternoon and the edges are a bus or a taxi each.
Which Frankfurt quests can you do for free?
15 of the 16 can be checked in on the free plan, and all 16 can be read and travelled to without paying anything — the catalogue is open signed out, on every plan. PRO covers the check-in on the hardest tier, which in Frankfurt means one quest: Feldbahnmuseum.
How do I prove I visited a place in Frankfurt?
Take the photo at the place and upload it. Your browser reads the location the camera wrote into that file and measures it against the quest's own coordinates; inside 200 m the check-in counts. The distance is measured to the point, not to the city: being in Frankfurt is not what is checked, and a photo taken across town from Frankfurt Cathedral fails exactly the way one taken at home does. A file with no location in it cannot be checked at all, and a photo that has been through a messaging app usually arrives that way — upload the original out of the camera roll rather than a copy someone sent back to you. The Food quests in Frankfurt sit on the room where the dish is served rather than on the dish, so that address is what the 200 m is measured from.
