Das Trianon ist ein 45-stöckiger, 186 m (610 ft) hoher Wolkenkratzer im Frankfurter Stadtteil Westend-Süd, der im Jahr 1993 fertiggestellt wurde.
Sein Grundriß hat annähernd die Form eines gleichseitigen Dreiecks, dessen Ecken durch ebenfalls dreiseitige Türme gebildet werden. Oben auf dem Gebäude befindet sich eine umgedrehte dreiseitige Pyramide, die an ihren drei Seiten aufgehängt ist. Es ist das erste Bauwerk in Deutschland, bei dem hochfester Beton zum Einsatz kam.
Das Trianon wird von der DekaBank als Firmensitz genutzt.
