Pollen Count in Frankfurt

4-Day Chart
Annual Overview

Trees start releasing pollen in Frankfurt around mid-March. This is when birch and hazel trees start sharing their pollen. It's a natural process, but it can cause problems for some people.

Updated: 2/11/2026

By late March to early April, more trees join in. Oaks, beech, and ashes start sending out their pollen. It's like a big pollen party, but it's not fun for everyone.

The pollen count usually peaks in mid-April. That's when the most pollen is in the air. This can be a tough time for those who react to pollen.

The good news is that by May, the pollen count starts to go down. The party winds down, and the air gets cleaner. This is a welcome change for many people in Frankfurt.
