Kastor und Pollux

Description

Kastor und Pollux, also known as Forum Frankfurt, are two high-rise buildings in the Gallus district of Frankfurt, Germany. The twin towers, which are 22 and 33 floors, respectively, were named after Castor and Pollux, the Dioscuri of Greek and Roman mythology.
Pollux and Kastor were designed by Kohn Pedersen Fox and built between 1994 and 1997. The taller tower, named after Zeus and Leda's son Pollux, is 130 metres tall with 33 storeys and has 31,500 square metres of floor space. The shorter tower, named after the son of Leda and the mortal king Tyndareus, is 95 metres tall with 22 storeys and has 28,000 square metres of space. The buildings are located near Messeturm and Tower 185 as well as the train station. Between the two buildings is a green space featuring a fountain and a light sculpture, Synergie, by Swiss artist Christian Herdeg. Kastor was awarded an LEED Gold Certificate in 2014.
