Arrive in Solingen — the City of Blades in the hills of the Bergisches Land — with a private fixed-price transfer from Frankfurt Airport (FRA). The 203 km route along the A3 takes around 2h 20min, and your FrankfurtRide chauffeur handles everything door-to-door, with the price agreed before you travel.

Solingen has forged Europe's finest knives, scissors, and swords for seven centuries — the "Made in Solingen" mark is legally protected, and the German Blade Museum tells the story in full. Above the Wupper valley, the medieval Schloss Burg was the seat of the Counts of Berg, and the Müngstener Brücke nearby remains Germany's highest railway bridge. Slate-clad houses and wooded valleys give the city its distinct Bergisch character.
