I was stationed in Hanau from 1967 until 1969. I loved the town. I went back in 2008 and 2009. It has really changed. I plan to go again in a couple of years.

More changes to come
by: Rita

Hi Rodney,

I am glad you loved Hanau. I agree, there have been many changes since then, and more are to come.

Now that the American troops have left Hanau the housing areas are undergoing conversion.
Another big project is planned to make the city centre more attractive, although this is quite a bit controversial.

But there are also things that will never change, so you will certainly find some places just the same as they were 40 years ago.

My Hanau
by: Anonymous

Hanau is my home town. I was born there in 1968. We left in 1982 and I've only been back once, in 1985, for about 1 yr...to Frankfurt, actually. Part of me wants to go back to Hanau but the other part is afraid that all the changes will hurt too much. Especially the absence of American Military! God Bless Them!
