The Deutsche Bank Twin Towers (German: "Deutsche Bank Zwillingstürme" or "Deutsche Bank-Hochhaus") is the headquarters of Deutsche Bank Group, located in the banking district in Frankfurt, Germany.
It is one of the best known buildings in Germany because of its high media coverage. The towers were originally planned as a hotel for the American Hyatt Hotel Group. The S-Bahn-Station Taunusanlage is located at the foot of the building. The largest man-shaped monolith of the world, created by the Swiss sculptor Max Bill, is located in front of the entrance.
The complex contains two towers, each 155 meters high, and a four-story base below. Like any skyscrapers in the Frankfurt area, the building has nicknames. In this case, they are referred as Soll und Haben (German for Debit and credit). They are also referred to among English speakers in the Frankfurt area as the "Twin Towers."
